Hello ALL,
I just installed ActiveSync 4.2 on my work computer, and it managed to wipe out the password I had embedded in my prior version (3.7). Does anyone know how to recover the old password, or is it gone permanently? If it's gone permanently, I guess I'll have to create a new device configuration.

Thank goodness that Microsoft doesn't do the software that keeps pacemakers or defibrillators running!!!
 
If it ain't broken dont fix it.

Its not like someone is going to hack into your computer and then screw with ActiveSync, just leave it at a working level...
There wouldnt be a point to hack into activesync if he can get to your outlook email itself, a lower patch level isnt going to hurt anything.

I doubt there is a way to recover it aside of backup software, or System Restore.
