Hi, Scorpion509.

The installation package tcmdpocket.exe cannot be run on the Axim directly, because it is not a valid PPC application, but a "normal" self-extracting archive meant to be run on your Windows desktop/notebook.

To install proceed like this:
  • Connect your Axim to your desktop/notebook
    Launch tcmdpocket.exe.
    This will extract the PPC installation cabfiles inside tcmdpocket.exe to the directory that you specify.
    ActiveSync will come up and ask you where it should install Total Commander for Pocket PC on your Axim.
    You may select to use MainRAM or Internal Storage.
    ActiveSync will run the installation on your Axim.
If you would like to know how to install Pocket Total Commander manually without using the ActiveSync procedure then read this thread please, in particular the last message.

Kind regards,
Karl
