I do not know if this will effect everyone but it did me. My computer just updated to the newest windows 10 Fall creators update version. When it did activesync no longer worked, I played around with it trying changes even a fresh install and thats when it said activesync will not work with this version of windows. I rolled back the update to the version before the new creators version and activesync works again.

I'm pretty sure you have to use windows Mobile Device Center instead of Activesync when you switch over to Windows 10.

Windows 7 requires Mobile Device Center.

This issue is popping up on Win 7 and Win 10 machines. I don't know the extent to which Win 7 machines are affected. With Win 10, rolling back the creators build only puts off the issue for six months from what I've been told. When you are forced to go to build 1703, Windows Mobile Device Center no longer works. There is a fix to get WMDC working again. Two actually. I sent this out to all of our guys today.

Yea sorry I call it activesync but it is Windows Mobile Device Center, one person told me that if you do a clean install then the latest build works but that is a lot of apps to install so it was easier for me to just rollback the windows version. Now I will take a view on that fix thanks

Just read the PDF, I tried the first fix yesterday and it would only work until a reboot then have to set them again. I will give the regedit a try on another windows 10 computer I have around. Thanks
