Accessing Files in Flash Memory
My Documents Folder
Access: Start | Programs | File Explorer | My Device | My Documents
Programs and files located in this folder are saved through a soft reset if they had been “saved”
prior to resetting. They are not saved through a hard reset.
The IPSM Folder
Access: Start | Programs | File Explorer | My Device | IPSM
Programs and files located in the IPSM folder are saved through a hard reset. Backed up registry
settings are automatically restored after a hard reset.
When adding a new CAB file to the IPSM/AutoInstall folder:
1. First delete the RegBackup file in the IPSM folder.
2. Add the new CAB file, then press ESC + CTRL to perform a hard reset.
3. Reconfigure all settings, including the setting for the newly loaded CAB file.
4. Then tap Start (or the
) | Utils (or Power Tools) | RegBackup to save all settings.
CAB files stored in the AutoInstall folder within the IPSM folder are automatically unpacked
following a hard reset.
If necessary, restore default registry settings by deleting the RegBackup file in the IPSM folder
and then perform a hard reset.
After a Hard Reset (sometimes called Cold Boot) any programs that were not saved to the
IPSM folder are lost and need to be reinstalled.
