You know, I just stopped it from safe mode command prompt and loaded an 
ultimate boot CD and noticed that a few of the folders in there are now gone. 
So it was working, it was just taking a long time because of the amount of 
files. I am continuing the delete from the CD. Looks like its going to take a 
while as well.

  Funny, I am fixing this today after changing the paths of many redirected 
folders.
  The only sure way  have fixed this the first time is:

  1. Disable offline folders, reboot, delete contents of CSC, enable offline 
folders, reboot.
  or
  2. Boot from a PE disc (Mine is deployed via WDS) and delete CSC contents, 
then reboot.

  You might try renaming it, so you can get up and running asap. Also, I always 
just cd into the dir, then run the rmdir command so I don't have to recreate it.

  Well, I tried the first options and they didn't work. I also tried the rd 
command again and its still going (a few hours now) maybe there are so many 
files that it is going to take loooong time, there are almost a million. I will 
let it run overnight and if its still going in the morning I will just reimage 
the box. Thanks for the help.

    If that doesn't take care of it, open a command prompt in safe mode, go to 
\windows, and type

     

       rd /s /q csc

       md csc

    Subject: Offline Files Folder

     

    I have a workstation that I am trying to run a spyware scan on but the 
offline files folder  (windows/cbc) has about a million files in it and is 
making the scan take forever but I cant seem to delete the files in there. I 
tried from folder options but it shows that nothing is there. I tried to get 
rid of them through safe mode command prompt to no avail. Anyone know how I can 
delete these files?

     

    Thanks,
