Guest vampyre69 Posted November 11, 2005 Report Posted November 11, 2005 Ok so i couldnt get the new beta skype to download so deleted it now this sh!tty little window keeps popping round saying; "Cannot execute \Program\Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe" I reset the phone but its still saying it.
Guest Dade Posted November 11, 2005 Report Posted November 11, 2005 Try having a look in the Windows Startup folder on the device and see if there is anything in there that relates to Skype that you can remove.
Guest dazza12 Posted November 11, 2005 Report Posted November 11, 2005 Did you just delete it or did you remove it using 'Remove Programs'? If you just deleted it, there's a load of Registry entries left behind, probably one that runs Skype on startup. The best way round this (if it now won't remove), is to add it again, then do a proper remove to clear everything out.

Guest RadioImp Posted November 13, 2005 Report Posted November 13, 2005 Get the program called 'CheckNotifications'. from here: Scary Bear Run that, find the one that is 'Skype' or 'Skype.exe' and delete it. This will sort the error message out for you. Seems to be a bug in Skype with Mobile 2005.
