Make asynchronous event handler as synchronous using Powershell

Question

Hi All,
Using custom coding i am able to change the asynchronous event handle to synchronous.
Can anybody let me know Is there any other way to change the same. Like Powershell script or any.
Without deploying the solution i want to change the event handler type.
Please advice.
Thanks & Regards

Hi 
you can use power shell to do so
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell –erroraction SilentlyContinue 
$web = Get-SPWeb -Identity http://...
$list = $web.GetList($web.Url + "/Lists/" + “list name”) 
$type = "ItemAdded" #or any other type, like ItemDeleting, ItemAdding, ItemUpdating, ... 
$numberOfEventReceivers = $list.EventReceivers.Count 
if ($numberOfEventReceivers -gt 0)
 for( $index = $numberOfEventReceivers -1; $index -gt -1; $index–-) {
    $receiver = $list.EventReceivers[$index] ;
    $name = $receiver.Name
    $typ = $receiver.Type ;
 if ($typ -eq $type)  #or you can check ($name -eq "event receiver's name") if you have more then one event receivers of the same type
    $receiver.Synchronization = "Synchronous"
    $receiver.Update()
    Write-Host "Event receiver " $name " is changed to Synchronous"
else
    Write-Host " There is no EventReceiver of type " $type " registered for this list "
$web.Dispose()
or
$list = (get-spweb http://sharepoint/sites/test).lists['somelist']
$def = $list.EventReceivers.Add()
$def.Assembly = "MyReceiverAssembly, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=Neutral,PublicKeyToken=a00000000a000ce0"
$def.Class = "MyReceiverAssembly.MyReceiverClass"
$def.Type = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPEventReceiverType]::ItemAdded
$def.Name = "My ItemAdded Event Receiver";
$def.Synchronization = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPEventReceiverSynchronization]::Synchronous
$def.Update()
this should be done at each level where list is present.
or you can Edit the Elements.xml file of the event receiver in(14 hive layouts/feature folder) and set the synchronization element as below..
<Synchronization>Synchronous</Synchronization>
Synchronous</Synchronization> https://naimmurati.wordpress.com/2012/03/22/add-modify-or-delete-list-event-receivers-with-powershell/">https://naimmurati.wordpress.com/2012/03/22/add-modify-or-delete-list-event-receivers-with-powershell/
