And yeah, it's the manilla files. All you need to do is hard reset and never install anything and you'll be able to browse \Windows really fast.

Note, do not hard reset, that was a joke.

GREAT EXPLANATION!

The left pane represents your PC; the right pane represents your phone. Files will be transferred to/from the active directory for each device. For example, if you wanted to transfer the Home manila mode9 file out of /windows to your desktop, it would look like this:

Ya, at first glance it just looks like a folder/tree-view pane and a detail pane :)

Here's an update: I hard reset my phone and now my windows folder loads up in about a quarter of the time it used to take. Go figure.

Must have been something you had installed. The stock ROMs are horribly slow at loading the windows directory, too... but I don't think there are too many people who are active around here who are still on a stock ROM.

How long does it/did it take when you use explorer on your phone? Mine takes only about 5 seconds to load up all the files. I almost never browse my folders in Activesync though, and when I do I do it through the storage card as USB drive.

//I'm using stock ROM with the Sprint clean-up tweak

I'm using KK's rom and it only takes about 5 to 6 seconds for the \windows folder to load. I've heard Mighty's is even faster (but I think it's because his is more of stripped rom).

My Mogul used to take about 5 minutes to load the Windows directory, and half of the time it would just freeze up and I'd have to soft reset.
I definitely don't miss that at all. My Touch Pro has never taken more than about 10 seconds tops to load :)
