Until today, I'd never even checked the "files" checkbox under sync settngs in WMDC.
When I did, I immediately got a error:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue, if you click Quit, the appliction will close immediately.
Here are the details from this error dialog:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I clicked "continue" and it immediately started trying to sync, but hung up/froze. So I tried to uncheck "files" and WMDC closed down.
Upon re-opening it says "connecting" but hte device shows that it's syncing.
ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!
