Pocket Internet Explorer Appears to Hang Because of a Hidden Dialog Box After a File Download (320992)

RESOLUTION

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

IMPORTANT: You must apply this hotfix, and then add the following change to the registry of the device:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Apps\PocketIE]
"ExecShellOnFileDownload"=dword:
				

If the ExecShellOnFileDownload value is equal to '0', the shell is not started when a file download starts. For any other value, the shell starts and shows the folder that contains the recently-downloaded file. If this key does not exist, the shell starts. By default, the ExecShellOnFileDownload value is not present, so the OEM must create it in to stop the shell from starting when a file download starts.

A supported software update is now available from Microsoft as Windows CE 4.0 Core OS QFE 020422.
