Reverting to an Empty Catalog (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

If the Catalog for Platform Builder becomes corrupt, you can clean the underlying database using the following procedure.

If you clean the database using this procedure, Catalog item (.cec) files you imported since you installed Platform Builder will be disassociated from the Catalog. After cleaning the database, re-import these Catalog item files to associate them with the Catalog again.

For more information about importing a Catalog item file, see Adding a .cec File to the Catalog.
