How to Uninstall ActiveSync?
miktro
to ActiveSync (can't open MSGraph objects in Powerpoint).
(First noticed it on December 19th).
How do I uninstall ActiveSync from my PC?
It doesn't appear in add / remove programs.
None of the registry Keys in the KB article to manually remove v 3.8 exist
on my machine (no Windows Ce stuff at all).
(no RAPI.DLL or msasync.exe anywhere.)
If I delete the 'Microsoft ActiveSynce' directory in 'Program Files' - then
it prompts me to re-install something from my Office CD every time I open a
program - and the directory is recreated with 3 files in it (msconv97.dll,
mswrd832.dll, RICHINK.DLL).
I do not want ActiveSync - and as far as I am aware I have never installed
it (but it could have sneaked through if buried in a list of Microsoft
updates).
The only comments I have found on Google seem to suggest I need to do a
complete wipe and re-install of Windows - which would take 2-3 days to re-
install everything - and will be my absolutely last resort.
Any help greatly appreciated.

you try to open the document or try to access the msgraph objects in
powerpoint. another thing you can try to narrow down on the problem is to
open a new powerpoint presentation and try and insert and access a msgraph
object.
The problem may not be related with active sync at all.
Hope this helps

As for ActiveSync, I would suggest reinstalling it then uninstalling via
Add/remove programs.

I need to know how to remove ActiveSync.
My PPT problem may not be realted to ActiveSync
But
I can add charts to PPT.
Byt if I save th PPT and re-open it then I can't open existing chrts for
editng.
I get an error message about missing OLE server - and when I try and re-
install it says it can't find the application server.
The application server path for MS Graph is stored in the registry in DOS
8.3 format - with he directory path containing MICROS~2.
Hoever the corrrect directory would actually be MICROS~3.
Because 'Microsoft ActiveSync' directory has been added to program files
the path to Grpah is now incorrect.
I want ot eliminate ActiveSync as this might solve the problem but - even
if not - will help me further diagnose what is causing it.
So - how do I get rid of ActiveSync?

Explain what is wrong with the suggestion the OP was given over 2 years ago?
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsupdate/msg/8d2f15700758a89b?dmode=source
Notice that there was no response from the OP to this suggestion
so that is usually a good sign that it probably helped.
BTW I don't think that this question is really on-topic in
any of the newsgroups the OP (and consequently you)
posted to. But since you only vaguely refer to a "hanheld device"
I'm not sure which one would really be appropriate.
(FWIW my guess would be pocketpc.)
Good luck

nothing is wrong with the OS. the resone why I want to delete activeSinc is
because it does not sync wirelessly. the older version ActiveSync 3.7 does
Sync wirelessly. I want to delete activeSync from the handheld device and
install 3.7 in it's place
