Re: how to backup a WM 6.1 Pro device

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If you want to backup the registry on the device, etc., you should look at
Spb Backup. I have it run on my WM5 device every night at 2am, backing up
the PIM data, documents, settings, etc. to the storage card. The backup is
placed in an executable file so, if I have to do a hard reset on the device
for some reason, I can easily run that backup and get the files and settings
back. Of course, if you do have a hard reset, you'll have to reinstall the
applications that you have on the device. I haven't yet used the 2.0
version, but it seems to add a few things that sound very good. Clinton
Finch's review is pretty thorough...

I use win XP and want to upgrade the ROM. I know active sync 4.5 dose not
allow to backup WM 5.0 or newer. However can i use Windows Mobile Device
Center 6.1 on a vista machine to back up my data.
