Change the Sync folder on WM2005? CJSnet 10-17-2005

Hi, I know for WM2003 it was possible to change the Synchronized Files to be
on the Storage Card:

"To change the PocketPC folder that actually gets synchronized, you'll
need to edit this registry key on your PocketPC:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\FileSyncPath
Everything in this path, including subfolders, will get synchronized."

However on WM2005 this option is not in the registry. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hmm, I take that back, it creates the folder, but any changes made on the
device are overwritten by the PC version :(

It only works as intended on the internal device memory.

Any ideas?
