Adding and Removing Programs

Additional programs that you purchased can be installed and uninstalled on your device. Your device does not allow you to uninstall most of the preinstalled programs.

Note Before you purchase additional programs for your device, make sure that they are compatible with your device.

To install a program:

1.Download the program to your computer (or insert the CD or disk that contains the program into your computer).

You may see a single *.exe file, a *.zip file, a Setup.exe file, or several versions of files for different device types and processors. Be sure to select only the programs designed for your device.

2.Read any installation instructions or documentation that comes with the program. Many programs provide special installation instructions.

3.Connect your device to the computer.

4.Double-click the installation setup file.

To uninstall a program:

1.Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Remove Programs.

2.In the Programs in storage memory list, select the program you want to remove, and then tap Remove.

Resetting Your Device

Soft Reset

Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. A soft (or normal) reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when your device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.

To perform a soft reset:

1.Pull out the stylus.

2.Remove the back cover.

3.Use the stylus to press the Reset button located at the bottom of the back side of the device. Your device restarts and displays the Home screen.
