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.

    Thank you for the speedy, helpful response. However, I've tried the link several times and keep getting the same error message...

    Failed:  You need to run this program as Administrator

        Right click on the executable and select 'Run as administrator'

    suggestions?

    MS just updated my Windows 10 with new privacy settings and also a "creator" something or another. Now, my Windows Mobile Device Center won't work...heck, it won't even load or open! Any suggestions?

    I've had Windows10 working for a while but it seems that the latest update pushed by Microsoft broke WMDC, the screen never opens, if I try to open it I see the opening screen "Please Wait while  Windows Mobile Device Center Starts" but it never starts it just goes away.

    The strange thing is that it sees the cradle but not the device docked in it.  I need this for work, please help.

    Thanks

    I am using an HP iPAQ rx4240.  All drivers are updated.  I can't check off in the Mobile Device 6.0 when the iPAQ is connected to my desktop the calendar and address options. 

    Still waiting for Microsoft to fix this issue with a patch or fix that isn't complicated in order to make it all work again in Windows 10 Professional like it did in Windows 7 Professional.
