ForumThe problem with miopocket is it changes just about everything in the device, and on a device with persistent registry/memory can be difficult to remove.
Are you using a script to run Garmin?

Hmmm! Getting to the device's registry can be a job in itself. Could he use "Total Commander" to open us his registry so he could remove all traces of MioPocket?
If it ain't broke don't fix it!

Yes, but it's not that easy, things would have been added, deleted and changed. During the installation of miopocket a snapshot of the original registry would have been taken, it should be restored during the uninstallation.

Now we'll wait for his reply.

I think at this time only a hard reset will help, and usually you need to reflash the device to do one.
The Garmin folder that keeps appearing is normal, the script is copying it from a backup, it's where Garmin stores it's settings.
Did you uninstall miopocket by using it's own uninstall option, or did you just delete it's folders? If you just deleted it's folders then put them back (if you have them) and use the uninstall option.
Don't use a fresh copy of miopocket as it won't have your registry backup saved.

The problem is miopocket has changed something in the registry that Garmin relies on.
I believe Garmin needs explorer.exe running to start, try running \windows\explorer.exe (Nothing may happen) before starting Garmin.
Failing that, there is a hard reset option in miopocket, you could try that, however you will need to configure your device so miopocket doesn't run and reinstall itself afterwards, (rename the mioautorun.exe while miopocket is running) obviously backup anything Garmin related first.

You won't harm your device by running explorer.exe, but using the hard reset option is risky, but you need to balance the risk with whether you can live without Garmin or not.

i realize explorer.exe is fine and to have garmin back is worth the risk lol but if it fails i dont want a brik lol..... ok so iv tryed the explore.exe found on the system route(in windows folder)... didnt do any thing so can ya give me a basic step by step for my next step please .. lol. and i rilly dont think i flashed my unit as i look into it i still run of my sd card for mio pocket . so im gonad do as ya sujest and un install it and re name the exe from inside and see what it does for my garmin ... can you sujest a good unlocker so i can use the ce system once mio is gone. ps i cant chang the languige to english in ce do i need a dll

There's nothing you can do except flash an English rom, if one exists...

1, Good man!
2, Did you use the 'Uninstall Miopocket' option?
3, No, You will need to modify parts of the registry to 'register' certain dll's.
4, Using PNADesktop is a good idea, application shortcuts are easy to make, and you can run Total Commander to get file system and registry access.
5, There are apps available to backup and restore the registry, however i think a hard reset is needed here.
