    Remove Windows Phone From Devices & Drives??


    Nothing major. But on my laptop, I have a 'Windows Phone' icon next to my DVD drive and hard-drive icon. The Windows Phone isn't even connected anymore, and was wondering how I get rid of the icon? Looked in the devices folder, but it isn't listed.

    :)

    Remove "Albums" & Artists from Phone Music Player

    http://www.n95users.com/forum/general-95/16716-removing-albums-artists-music-player.html

    Try the link above, the site is for the N95 but the method works apparently.........whats below is what is at the link above.

    Connect the phone to your pc/lappy and put in 'Data transfer' mode.

    Find the memory card storage device in My Computer and go to the 'Private' folder.

    Delete the contents of folders 101ffc31 & 101ffca9 (mpxv1.mpd,pcv5.mpd & harvesterdb.dat)

    Disconnect the phone from the PC using 'Safely remove hardware' bottom right of the taskbar then start Music Player on the phone.

    It'll rebuild the library but select 'Refresh' in the options just to make sure.
