Why there is no file manager in Windows phone

Why there is no file manager in Windows phone??? There should be a file manager provided through the update.

so it's mean IOS or Android or Symbian were much better than windowsphone because they have file manager.
to be honest without file manager we can't choose drive to install apps, and that was a disadvantage for lumia phone who have small internal memory. So you had to rich enough go for flagship phone to get satisfaction warranty.
for instance my lumia 720 who have 8 Gb internal which right now at Nokia care centre, i have to cautious when installing apps or game with great memory requrement, where's my water for example need 700 MB.
my we chat apps i don't know why cost me 296Mb memory, even i've already deleted chat history, temporary files etc.

Why? Because worms are flying and we all smell of elderberries.
Seriously... Nobody here knows why. We don't work for Apple therefore we would have no clue as to the official reason why Apple stopped developing / supporting it.

Why do I have to switch from Windows Phone to Andr...

Why do I have to switch from Windows Phone to Android?
[September 30, 2014]
This year all my friends with Windows Phone (WP) had switched to Android. Why? The Apps. I continued with WP until now because the OS is very cool (particularly the 8.1 desktop) and because I love Nokia Phones. And the new 830 and 930 models look great.
But I will buy a new Fuji X30 Camera, I need the Wifi remote app for some shoots, I have no choice
Now, I will give a list of reasons my friends left WP because lack or applications, maybe somebody at Microsoft is listening and can revert this tendency.
1. Bank Applications (Bancolombia APP)
2. Giro D’Italia app from La gazzetta dello sport.
3. Stereopinic Concert app.
4. General Motors - Chevrolet navigation/location app.
Another annoying thing with Nokia phones in emerging markets is they don’t distribute all the accessories (headphones, wireless chargers, cases), so you have to buy them from another country make them expensive. I even met three months ago the commercial leader for Nokia here in Colombia, a group of people mentioned this, but nothing has changed since then. The updates came very late and right now I’m not able to use Cortana
I hope Microsoft starts investing hard on apps and identify that little temporal applications for just one week or month (sport events/concerts) and start to create mechanisms to get things done. They just can’t waste the 6’000.000 consumers in US and the 10% share market in some countries in Europe and in emerging markets.

I don't endorse any mobile phone brand nor receive any free stuff from them. Neither did I advertise anything. It was rather a recommendation if the starter of this thread would like ot purchase an Android phone. Censorship won't help to sell any more Lumia phones.
I cannot blame anybody who's about to purchase an Android phone. Being a Windows Mobile & Phone user since 2006 I've seen those strategic mistakes Microsoft has made when the 1st and the 2nd generation of Windows Phones were released (the price of developer account etc. etc.). It's very hard to mend those things afterwards but I sincerely hope it won't be impossible.
I'm blessed that I live in FInland because Nokia has always been considered as a Finnish mobile brand and therefore there are all those (well, almost all) necessary apps available for Windows Phone. IMO the best Nokia app has been Here Transit. I really don't need Here Drive+ because they don't bother to include speed cams and line assistance to their app. Just take a look at Navigation Europe and there you have the best possible navigation app for Windows Phone. Waze is also great and it's free. Hmm, I guess that sentence will be censored because I recommended something
I've been quite pleased with the latest Windows Phones. They haven't crashed like my Dell Venue Pro did (first Windows Phone ever) or like my Android phone, tablet and TV box. But in order to increase the market share of Windows Phones there are two ways:
1) good (amount of) apps, great hardware and/or
2) double booting phone where it's possible to choose whether to boot to Android or to Windows Phone. I'd love to have that kinda phone with the goods described in 1)

i searhced about exe format but i didnt find enough info
Sorry, but you should define more precisely what is your goal:
" i searhced about exe format but i didnt find enough info"
If you build an exe using Labview, that exe will not run on iOS, or Android, if this is what you ask...
Nor Windows Phone or Windows RT. A LabVIEW exe is compiled and linked for x86 or AMD64 architecture with Win32 API architecture and will only run on Windows for x86 or x64 systems.
Windows Phone and Windows RT are despite the similarity in the name technically completely different platforms to the normal Desktop Windows system, just as different as MacOS X or iOS.

Is there a temporary file location on Windows 7 for Illustrator CS6?

I was working in Illustrator for a few hours this morning and was just about to save when the Program "quit running". Is there an temporary file created automatically? Where might this be located in Windows 7?

That's bad luck.
Unlike other programmes (e.g. InDesign) Illustrator currently doesn't have that kind of automatic backup / file recovery capability.
It has been requested many times.

Can I save acrobat cloud PDF files back to windows phone 8.1?

I've backed up my (sandboxed) PDF files from Acrobat Reader on my Windows Phone 8.1 to Acrobat.com (Cloud).
How Can I restore (save) them back to the phone?
I understand I can view them in/from the cloud but how to get them back on the phone locally?
-It sure would be nice to be able to copy them to the Office Hub as well.
Seems Acrobat Reader (Windows Phone 8.1 app) allows download from OneDrive but not upload/ back-up to OneDrive, why?
Why is the no option / context menu item allowing "save to phone" when tap/hold on cloud stored file, or while viewing the file itself.
I see no option to download to phone.
Seems the only work-around I can think of is to NOT use the Windows Phone Acrobat Reader App; but instead log into Acrobat.com (using the phones browser)
and download the file(s) that way.

Hi gtesuji,
You may log on The Most Reliable Tool to Convert PDF to Word or Excel | Adobe ExportPDF and login with your Adobe id and password. Go to file section.
Then you can download files back to phone memory.

Why does my pdf file open in 'windows picture and fax viewer'?

Anytime someone sends me a pdf file, when I click 'open', it automatically opens up my 'windows picture and fax viewer' and of course, I get nothing. So, in order to read a pdf file, I must first save it, then go into my Adobe Reader, and open it from there. Can anyone tell me how to change that? It's only happened since I upgraded Adobe Reader to 8.0. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Right click the pdf file and click on Properties. In the General tab click the Change button and associate the Adobe Reader 8 program to the pdf file. Click Ok, then Apply.
I assume the connection to this forum is that the pdf file is a Lighroom generated slideshow.

How to retrive the data from a sqlite file(.db3) in windows phone 8.1(runtime)

hey guys
i installed the sqlite and sqlite-net as requested in other answers i found, changed to x86, and add the .db3 file in my project.
but the problem is how to retrive the data that already in the file( i am not creating any table or data in the app, just read)
all the answer i found is to create a table first and then read the table, i tried to skip the step of creating a table, and read from the table directly, but failed with " no such table", by the way, i set the property of the .db3 file as "content",
"copy if newer"
can anyone please help? i appreciate that !

Hello,
From your description, you want to read data from available sqlite file. When you add the sqlite file into your project, you need to change the sqlite file build action to content. After deploying to device, the sqlite file is located in installation folder,
you need to copy that file into storage folder before reading data. Please try the following code snippets.
private async void Button_Click_9(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
//check if file exists in storage folder, and then copy to local storage
bool flag = await FileExistsAsync("Data.db3");
if (!flag)
var folder = await Package.Current.InstalledLocation.GetFileAsync("Data.db3");
await folder.CopyAsync(Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder);
// open sqlite and read data
public async Task<bool> FileExistsAsync(string fileName)
try
await Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFileAsync(fileName);
return true;
catch (FileNotFoundException)
return false;

How can I import a file into my Windows Phone 8.1RT App?

Hi All,
I'm running into a bit of an issue associating my app with a custom file type. Users create a file using my app and upload it to their OneDrive for sharing. So I then want to give the users the ability to download the file from a share link and
have that file open automatically in my app. I've got the appropriate declarations set and file type associations, but I'm getting a file access exception when I try to open the file. Whats the best way to import a file into my app? Here's
the code I've got so far:
protected override async void OnFileActivated(FileActivatedEventArgs args)
var path = args.Files[0].Path;
var name = args.Files[0].Name;
StorageFile newFile = await StorageFile.GetFileFromPathAsync(path);
await newFile.CopyAsync(ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder, name.Substring(0, name.Length - 4));
The path comes back as
C:\Data\Users\DefApps\APPDATA\Local\Packages\microsoft.microsoftskydrive_8weke\LocalState\OpenWithTempFolder\e68c261-db3b-472d-a8b7-93427450\File Name.extension
and the exception is
Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
Clearly I'm trying to access the file in an inappropriate way, so what's the best way to get the file into my app's local storage?

You have the StorageFile in arg.Files[0] already. Just use that rather than getting its path and then trying to create a new StorageFile from it.
var path = args.Files[0].Path; // <= Path is unnecessary and unhelpful
var name = args.Files[0].Name;
await args.Files[0].CopyAsync(ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder, name.Substring(0, name.Length - 4));
See my blog entry Skip the path: stick to the StorageFile for more details.

Why doesn't the HTC One (M8) Windows Phone have it's own Device Discussion Thread?

I was looking to see what issues people have had with the HTC One (M8) but there is no discussion thread on this device; one of the two WP Verizon still sells. Who has one & do you like it?

To add to poster above, this issue is really with MS not pushing their product and not working with devs to get more and better apps. Also, you know VZW isn't pushing a WP because it isn't a Droid. I sincerely hope WP gives Android and Apple a run one day, but right now the closest we will see a major MS push is later this year when their new phones start arriving.

A better file manager?

Is there a better file manager for someone going from the Windows or Gnome Linux world on OS X?
I am looking for something like Windows Explorer or Nautilus. Both of these offer a left side panel that expands to a tree view of the filesystem, and a right panel showing the contents of the current folder.

If you are familiar with Linux, you can use Apple's X11 (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/x11/) and Fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net/) to install GNOME or another more familiar desktop environment.
You may also find helpful resources at Darwin Ports via opendarwin.org (http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/).

I am looking for a File Manager

I'm looking for a file manager that will let me see what files I have on my BB itself and on the card. I would also like to be able to move files from the BB memory to the card in some cases. Does anyone know if there is such a utility available in the BB world?
Along with that, I am wondering if I can run applications from the card as well as the BB memory?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Bob

Hi there!
Concerning file management, I find that using the USB tether method is the simplest as it lets you treat your Device and Media Card memory as USB drive letters in Windows:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Desktop-Software/HOWTO-use-your-blackberry-as-a-US...
There also is a native file manager app:
Homescreen > Media > BBKey > Explore
I recall some posts here somewhere about add-ons...you might dig into AppWorld to see if there is anything you might like.
Concerning your second question about running apps from the Media Card -- no. BB's restrict apps to being installed into the protected and fixed AppMemory location. There are some tricky add-ons that will swap apps in and out of AppMemory when you are not using them, but to run, an app must be installed into AppMemory. There is no option.
Hope that helps!
