I just bought a Hitachi HPW-10 from a second-hand store, only the machine, without the sync cable
Now the problem comes
I want to get Windows CE 1.0 Powertoys on my machine but it requires H/PC explorer
Anyone who have H/PC explorer can attached the CAB version of the powertoys (SH3 version)?
Thank you very much

Windows CE 1.0x doesn't use the cab method, you have to use H/PC:Ex.

Any Windows 9x VM will work or and 2000/XP VM/System. If you use ActiveSync use my (HPC:Factor) XP version.
To get H/PC:Ex working manually there are guides in support.

I take it nobody figured out how to do this then? Yeah, I know this thread's a little under 3 years old, but my question is the same as this here and hasn't actually been answered. I have a copy of Powertoys 1.0, a Compaq C120, and no way of transferring files other than via PCMCIA card.

CE1 uses a bespoke push installer, there are no structures on the host machine as there are with CE 2.0

The only way to get the data would be to do the install onto a device and then copy it off; unless you binary extract them from the installer (which are usually installshield and propriatory).

I've got a converter for the installer program, which as far as I'm aware uses H/PC Explorer to extract the files to a directory somewhere - problem is, the converter won't install, which may be something to do with me refusing to let it horse around with my network setup. Is there a way I can install H/PC Explorer, and get it fully working, without having to plug my palmtop into the computer? I can't plug it in, see, I just have no way of doing it.

EDIT: Actually, I was really impressed by the installer for Internet Explorer 1.1 - a small but fully-fledged installer package that actually ran on the H/PC itself.

I've got H/PC Explorer 1.1 installed - in theory. RAS won't do anything, I can't connect to my palmtop in any way because I haven't got a cable or even a serial port, and with the installation I've got I can't seem to get the converter to install. It just literally says "Installation failed.'

Can nobody help with this?

Sorry for necroposting here but your best bet is to buy a usb to serial cable. A generic $8 one off ebay should do the trick. Then in your VM software (i.e. Virtualbox) tell it to use the serial port.

e.g. in Virtualbox https://i.imgur.com/vSWyRDR.png
