I recently did a restore on my laptop and am reinstalling some programs. However, when I go to reinstall Microsoft ActiveSync, it extracts the files, but then does nothing. It doesn't proceed to the next step, to the installation wizard. I've tried downloading a new version, or using an old version, but it doesn't matter which I use. It does the same thing. I tried searching for the files that it extracts, but I can't seem to find them either. Did it just extract them to the memory? Why won't this install?

Try downloading and installing version 3.8:

As I indicated in my original message, it doesn't work. NO MATTER WHAT VERSION I TRY.

I have the same problem and can't get an answer that works anywhere either. I've tried about 8 supposed solutions - everything except a clean install of XP.

Thanks for sharing. I'm glad that I'm not the only one that suffers from this problem. A clean install did work. I performed that a long time ago, but I left this question open to see if anyone had additional ideas. I guess not.
