Found a registry tweak to do it from the IBM Site.

I have tried using XTND for the same, it is good sw. but it gives strange errors sometime. I have full version of the s/w, but it does not allow me to create a profile. I need to install the trial version and over-write all the files of the full version. But it works.

Now new error - I have MSXML 4.0 installed, but it still gives me the error to install it.

Then I found this registry tweak from the IBM Website. Try using both this tweaks after you install the PC Suite. I have W950i. It did not initially give the option for Lotus Notes. After this tweak it works. i can download my calendar, contacts, email ALL OF THEM.

Hope this is useful for all.

FIRST ONE

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lotus\Notes\5.0]
"DataPath"="C:\\notes\\data"
"Description"="Lotus Notes"
"MultiUser"=dword:00000000
"Name"="Notes.exe"
"Path"="C:\\notes"

SECOND ONE

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lotus\Notes\8.0]
"DataPath"="C:\\notes\\data"
"Description"="Lotus Notes"
"MultiUser"=dword:00000000
"Name"="Notes.exe"
"Path"="C:\\notes"

PS - I have Lotus Notes 8. So if you have 7, maybe you need to make changes accordingly in the second file.

Just save as .reg and execute one by one
