Active Sync always running

[jrebennack]

Whenever I check running problems ActiveSync is always running. How do I shut it off and only run it when syncing to my PC???

[allgire]

One way is to use KillSync, which can be reviewed here: http://www.cewindows.net/applications/killsync.htm

Hope this helps.

I tried the KillSync function from my PC when I was finished synching but I found Active Sync in running programs an hour later. I was looking for something I would download to my pocket pc.... Thanks for the suggestion, maybe I'll try it again...

I got a copy of StartupCop PRO from PC Magazine. The link is:

After disabling wcescomm.exe, the ActiveSync Connection Manager, I can run ActiveSync just when I want to. I've been running this way for about a month, no problems.

StartupCop's function is to examine all programs that load when you boot up. I used it to disable many that I run when and if I need them.

Is this for your PC or X5??? I need something that stops Active Sync from running on my pocket pc.... not my desktop pc...

Try changing your ActiveSync Options Schedule's setting on your pocketpc from "continuously" synchronize to "manually" synchronize. To close it down immediately do a soft reset or close it through Settings-Memory-Running Programs.

All you have to do is go to settings/memory/running programs/stop all.
Activesync opens when ever you sync. This is the only way to shut it down to save ram spare a soft reset. BTW, you should soft reset every day or so. It really helps.
