The device is telling you that you had an exception, but the exception "Message" is not available. There are a few things to know here:

  1. You should be catching exceptions and providing user-meaningful messsages, not the message in the exception itself. It usually means nothing to a user.
  2. You can install the exception messages by installing the indicated CAB file, which can be found here:
    %PROGRAM_FILES%\Microsoft.NET\SDK\CompactFramework\v3.5\WindowsCE\Diagnostics
  3. A restart isn't actually needed.
