Default sERVICES.EXE PROBLEM

i believe this error appears if one changes default location of htc shortcuts /or shortcuts in start menu ......

how ever reverting short cuts does not solve problem ...and some icons of shortcuts lost like in my case htc calender icon is lost ....

now services .exe error is coming again on every reboot ...

so any one can confirm this scenario ....

It affects something...when Service.exe problem occurs, you need to reboot your phone, otherwise you are not able to receive SMS messages!

I have had this occur on a few occasions after messing with software. Can't say it caused any problem other than the annoying boot up message. Only a hard reset ever resolved it.

Default My experance with Services.exe

I found that i always, and only ever get services.exe error on boot up when i have TouchTools installed and the only way to fix it is to hard reset!!

Not come across this before, but can tell you I move all my short-cuts around when I have flashed a ROM and I never had this happen so nothing to do with that,

couple for you to have a look through

like demon_man said, i've moved all the htc shortcuts (and lost a few) also have touchtools installed and have never had this error, I know that doesn't help you guys but I don't think its caused by either of those 2 things.

It seems it has to do with the installation of more than one app without performing a soft reset.
If you always perform a soft reset after installing an application you can minimize the risk of getting this error, maybe you can even avoid the error.
