Default Using XDA II as a "memory stick"

Hello everybody,

I'm probably overlooking something but I can't seem to find out how to transfer data from my PC via my XDA II to another PC without the ActiveSync changing all data into PDA readable files.
Sometimes, I'd just like to use my XDA II as a simple Memory Stick to carry data from one PC to another. For example, PPT presentations and stuff like that.
Anyone?
Thanks.
Greetings.

Tools - Options - Rules - Conversion Settings - Remove the check...
This way, it only copies the files..

Thanks Bonzo,

Believe it or not, just found it too and it works.
However, I wonder why the conversion is needed then? I unchecked the conversion settings and I loaded some MP3 music, Word doc's, Power points and a picture, they all work perfectly without the conversion.
Anyway, thanks for the reply.

Yes, 99% of the files are possible to open without conversion.
However, they are not optimized for the mobile application.

So in short: conversion = optimizing and compability for the 1%..
I turn it OFF!
