Does anyone know how I can get a Windows Mobile 6.5 PDA to connect up to a Windows 10 PC?
Before upgrading the PC from Window 8.1 I was able to use Windows Mobile Device Center to link up to the PDA over USB. This allowed me to access files on the PDA via Windows Explorer, access the internet from the PDA over our network and deploy to the PDA via Visual Studio 2008.
I had to uninstall Windows Mobile Device Center as part of the Windows 10 installation, as it was flagged as incompatible with Windows 10. I can't seem to find an alternative for Windows 10?

The download will be executed through a download manager. The mentioned download manager doesn't have any relationship with the author. Windows Mobile Device Center could also be available for download on the author's website. Jaleco aims to offer downloads free of viruses and malware.

Unfortunately the Windows Mobile Device Center stopped working out of the box after the Creators Update for Windows 10. The application won't open and therefore it's impossible to get the sync working. In order to get it running now we need to modify the ActiveSync registry settings. Create a BAT file with the following contents and run it as administrator:
Restart the computer and everything should work.

I have managed to get my PDA working properly with Windows 10.
For transparency when I posted the original question I had upgraded a Windows 8.1 PC to Windows 10, I have since moved to using a different PC that had a clean Windows 10 installation.
These are the steps I followed to solve the problem:
- First of all I installed Visual Studio 2008.
- Then I installed Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1
- Then Windows Mobile 6 Professional and Standard Software Development Kits Refresh
- Then Windows Mobile 6.5 Developer Tool Kit
- Finally I opened up the Mobile Device Center, went to Mobile Device Settings ->Connection Settings and made sure DMA was selected under 'Allow connections to one of the following'

Had the same problem. Came across an article from Zebra with the fix that worked for me:
- Open services.msc
- Go to Windows Mobile-2003-ba**sed device connectivity
- Right click Windows Mobile-2**003-based device connectivity and click Properties
- Go to Log On Tab
- Choose Local System Account
- Click Apply
- Go to General Tab
- Press Stop and wait
- Once stopped, press Start
- Press OK
- Restart your PC
- Retry the Windows Mobile Device Center

Here is the answer:Download the 'Windows Mobile Device Center' for your machine type, likely 64bit.

Before you run the install, change the compatibility settings to 'Windows 7'.Then install it...Then run it: You'll find it under 'WMDC'..Your device should now recognize, when plugged in, mine did!

Install Windows Mobile Device Center for your architecture. (It will install older versions of .NET if needed.) In USB to PC settings on device uncheck Enable advanced network and tap OK. This worked for me on 2 different Windows 10 PCs.

I haven't managed to get WMDC working on Windows 10 (it hanged on splash screen upon start), so I've finally uninstalled it. But now I have a Portable Devices / Compact device in the Device Manager and I can browse my Windows Compact 7 device within Windows Explorer. All my apps using RAPI also work.Maybe this is the result of installing/uninstalling WMDC, or probably this functionality was already presented on Windows 10 and I've just overlooked it initially.

ActiveSync is a synchronization program developed by Microsoft. It allows a mobile device to be synchronised with either a desktop PC, or a server running Microsoft Exchange Server or Kerio MailServer. Only Personal information manager (PIM) data (Email/Calendar/Contacts) may be synchronised with the Exchange Server. (Tasks may also be synchronised with Exchange Server on Windows Mobile 5.0 devices.) The PC synchronisation option, however, allows PIM synchronisation with Microsoft Outlook, along with Internet 'favourites', files, and tasks, amongst other data types. Supported mobile devices include PDAs or Smartphones running Windows Mobile, or the Windows CE operating system, along with devices that don't use a Microsoft operating system, such as the Symbian platform. ActiveSync also provides for the manual transfer of files to a mobile device, along with limited backup/restore functionality, and the ability to install and uninstall mobile device applications.
Alternative software that mobile devices to synchronise non-Microsoft PIMs with a PC is also available; such as FinchSync for Thunderbird, or Intellisync.
Starting with Windows Vista, the next major release of the Windows Operating System, ActiveSync will be replaced with the Windows Mobile Device Center.
