I want to install Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 for Windows Mobile on a Windows CE 5.0 device

I installed int he desktop PC the file from Download Center

Then I followed the instructions in How to: Install SQL Server Compact 3.5 on a Device

But, at point 2, I don't find any "\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition\v3.5\Devices" directory. Under "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition\v3.5\" dir there are only Desktop\ and Private\ dir.

How could Install SQL Server Compact 3.5 on WindowsCE 5.0? Thanks

On 64-bit Microsoft OSes, many installations put files into a separate 32-bit Program Files folder, which is found at:

C:\Program Files (x86)

Look there for the subfolder (Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition...) you're after.
