Invisible Activesync

The activesync window won't display on my desktop, the relevant bar appears
on the taskbar but no window on the desktop.
Once connected my PDA synchronises but I can't change any of the sync
settings.
This happened with 3.8 so I upgraded to 4.0 still same problem. I went back
to 3.7 then 3.8 with no luck and in desperation tried a PDA hard reset with
you've guessed it no luck
Any ideas that don't involve a windows reinstall?

Are you using any kind of thrid party windows theme or some thing that
changes your desktop UI? If it is the case, these program sit between your
application and the operating system playing with UI events and messages. It
might be the the position of the desktop application has been corrupted. To
work around this, try the following:
Start | Run | Regedit.exe
Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services
There you should see a registry key that says something like window postion
and hods four numberic value delminated by commas.
Delete that key and try restarting ActiveSync again or restart your desktop.
I hope this would work.
Thanks,
Aziz
