I have Win7 Ultimate x64 installed on my desktop and laptop. To my knowledge I have NEVER created a Sync Center partnership (and I do NOT want a partnership, I do NOT want to use Sync Center) but I see Sync Center attempting to run. The desktop currently has a RAID 6 array (the RAID is shared out for all of my systems) and in Sync Center on my laptop when I view the partnerships I see s4-raid6 (\\S4) - S4 is the ID for my desktop, S4-raid6 is the label I assigned to the RAID. Also in the "Sync partnership details" view for the progress I see (1) Status ready for first sync (2) 6234 conflicts. If I right-click on the partnership I see Sync s4-raid6 (\\S4) Stop sync with s4-raid6 (\\S4) - note this is grayed out Browse contents of s4-raid6 (\\S4) - note the font is bold for this option View conflicts View Sync Results - note this option is grayed out Properties If I view sync partnerships I see Under Folders (1) - Offline files (in gray I see "Network files available offline, Offline files allows you to access network ....") Under Unspecified (3) I see Conflicts Sync Results Sync Setup Per the MS KB article I should be able to right-click and delete the partnership but when I right-click delete is NOT one of the options. How in the heck do I delete this partnership and stop Sync Center from attempting to run?

I'm googling trying to find the answer to this question also... hopefully we will!

Hi, You cannot disable Sync Center. Though you can delete the partnership. Although some sync partnerships may not offer an option to delete the partnership. Try opening the program or location where you set up the sync partnership to see if you can turn it off or delete it using that program or location. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Sync-Center-frequently-asked-questions http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/End-a-sync-partnership Hope that helps Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
