Hi,
I have created a C# .Net Compact Framework application which runs well on PDAs.
The problem is that when the battery goes completely flat, my application which was installed is also gone.
So user has to reinstall the application when they bring back power
How Can I avoid that .
Regards
Mani

This is normal for devices with RAM based storage. To avoid that you need a device with persistent storage (e.g. Windows Mobile 5.0 based). If you can¡¯t get such device, you would have to reinstall everything in case battery runs out.

Hi,

Thanks for that. My device is Windows CE 5.0. Is Windows Mobile 5.0 different from Windows CE 5.0 If it is not different How do I install to persistent storage

Yes, Windows CE 5.0 is different from Windows Mobile 5.0. Windows CE is highly customizable modular OS and Windows Mobile is a particular customization of Windows CE with special UI, set of PIM applications and persistent storage.
