Separate Reboot Icon can't be tapped in v3.5
Have just installed the v3.5 of PowerCheck. If I hide the 2nd right icon (power off) and leave the rightmost icon (for reboot) it can't be tapped. Instead, I need to tap the left blank space previously occupied by the power off icon. I've done several display calibrations but without success. Can anybody explain? Thanks a lot.

You can uninstall it!
Here's what I did...
First go to the windows directory (on your desktop/laptop computer with your pocket pc plugged in (iPAQ 1945) and find the file named "powercheck.dll" and rename it then move it to another directory somewhere. Then on your pocket pc, go to start... settings... system tab... remove programs... select powercheck program... remove and tada! It's out of here! What a deal!
Personally, I like the Batterycheck better.

Uninstall
It isn't possible to uninstall this tool anymore (iPAQ 3950)!
I tried to uninstall as told by the programmer (uncheck in "today"-preferences, then uninstall) but the file "powercheck.dll" remains in use - also after a soft reset! This is really annoying!
