TONS of apps for WinCE units, did you know that? - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

Millions of WinCE units are still around. (GPSs, radios, mini netbooks...)
I don't own a WinCE device but I know many things about a WinCE "brother" called Windows Mobile.
I noticed that people are still interested in theming and updating their WinCE devices but they struggle doing it since there's lack of informations on the web.
Many users look for apps exactly designed for WinCE and the catalog is very limited...
and so they often install older version of opera, music players etc...
But they don't know that they can install Windows Mobile apps on their devices!
Luckily many website still provide thousand of great Windows Mobile apps, and looking on xda also you can find many strange apps that geeks would love.
(for example in my personal archive I have an Opera version that "emulates" multitouch on any resistive touch screen etc)
A thing you need to know is that WinCE doesn't recognize Windows Mobile apps installations files. This file format is called ".cab" ... But that's not a problem, there's a way to extract apps from .cab files and use them on WinCE too!
Let me know if you need any particular Windows Mobile app for your WinCE device and I'll upload it here!
(newer versions for video players, radio apps, skype, an html5 browser, games...)
(press the thanks button if I helped you!)
Regards

Hi guys! Sorry for the late reply but it's not correctly displayed anymore on my devices.
Yes, i can upload my package online. I've already sent it to some of my supporters on my telegram channel. (https://bit.ly/Mikel_TG)
If I'm not wrong that package just contained Skype, the Opera Mini Browser and another software.
Is there any app in particular that you'l like to use on Windows CE?
Because the sense of my original post was also to provide a gude that explains how to convert any Windows Mobile app (that you can still find on websites like www.freewarepocketpc.net ) into a Windows CE app

thank you for your reply
I sort of hoped you actually had an archive of software hence my request... I know about freewarepocket pc and several others but many links now fail.... As too telegram I simply don't use it.. My goal is to archive as much wimmo apps and roms as possible as I still use daily several Mobile devices/pdas that use the os.. and occasionally I play around and mess them up by doings so... so having an offline archive is useful.
thank you again

Yes, I have several folder on my external hard disk. I didn't upload yet because I'll want to reorganize them and be sure to avoid uploading useless files like my photos and so on...
I regret to have not downloaded more apps in the past years, but how could I know, as an unexperienced young teen, that most WinMo sites will be closed?
Anyway we can exchange our archives. How big is your one?
A few months ago, with a friend of mine, I started a project to preserve old software for Android, it would be cool to do the same for Windows Mobile.

Hi! Sorry for the late reply! Did you ask for the link to the developer? I'm pretty sure MacrosCode still has it.
Otherwise, I'll look on my HDD and I'll upload it here for you.
(years ago I helped macros translating the few Italian strings in the app)

MacrosCode not replay... thank.
and, anyone have Microsoft reader for WinMo 5 or WinMo 6?

1) I uploaded it for you on the app thread
2) why do you need this tool? did you delete the stock Notepad on your PDA?
3) what do you mean with Microsoft reader?

Hi.
Do you know about the update ROM and firmware for Windows CE ?
I need download some ROM from ZebraSupportPage.
And, Im excited to learning about WinCE. How to add the language support for it. How the Windows CE Or Softwares can be run from removeable storage? I seen it run from Compactflash.
