Sync Center is still there in Windows 10 (Windows key + X > click Control Panel)
Windows Mobile Device Center Compatibility with Windows 10
Is or will Windows Mobile Device Center be compatible with Windows 10? There are some legacy devices that require sync with WMDC and then there are security personnel that do not allow devices to connect to their Wi-Fi but rather connect them via USB using WMDC. I was able to get WMDC to work successfully on Windows 8 and 8.1. So far I have not heard any news in regards to Windows 10. Looking forward to hearing results and or news regarding this. Thx everyone.

Unfortunately, this is now out-of-date. Latest windows 10 updates have removed control panel from easy access, no longer available with Win key +X. Can still find it using search facility, but Sync centre is no longer listed.
The only way I have been able to access Sync Centre is via Admin Command prompt, running mobsync.exe but this is no help as the sync centre appears on screen, but is completely inactive, has no partnership listed and does not recognise the device I have attached (via USB).
It appears that Microsoft has decided to remove this sync feature from Win 10 - is this correct?

It lacks functionality needed for those legacy devices.
I had Sync centre installed (as default w10) and still needed to install WMDC as otherwise devices don't see the PC.
even then on W10 only connection through Bluetooth were working not through USB.
