How do I install an app onto Win Mobile 6.5 device so it appears on the desktop/start menu?


I created a CAB project and the installer runs fine on my mobile device, but I have to go to the explorer and open "Program Files/My APP" to find the exe and launch it.

Is there some action I have to take in the config of the setup project or during install to make this work as I want?

(I want to have the icon on the main window/desktop or start menu so that I can run it from there)

    Just found this article: j2i.net/BlogEngine/post/2010/02/04/… . It looks like you can just create a regular shortcut and configure it to install in "\Windows\Start Menu". – Cosmin Pirvu Sep 9 at 13:35
