Completely Removing Active Sync 4.5

[quantum_kaos]

Firstly,

If I am posting this in the wrong thread I apologize!

Make a long story short, this has been a thorn in my side for years (no joke)

But essentially, what I want to do is completely remove all traces of Active sync on my desktop. Literally make it as if it has NEVER been installed on my computer.

We are talking all the profiles, dll's, registry entries etc.

The reason for me doing this is that anytime I try to sync any PDA I have ever had, no matter how many times I have uninstalled the program/reinstalled/cleared registry/all short of a reformat on the computer, it completely restores all my contacts that I DON'T want haha, I am talking old numbers from a year ago that are incorrect. Installing duplicate entries on my phone etc.

All I want to do is start AS all over again so I can back up all the contacts on my phone (the ones that are up to date and the ones I want to keep) so I can finally sync my phone once a week and never have to worry about losing my numbers.

I have looked up many how-to guides and have tried deleting all the profiles associated to it. But I believe those guides were for just removing the program itself not EVERYTHING.

Someone please help?

Thanks in advance!!
