Offline files were significantly reworked for Vista.
One could actually say that they work properly for the first time in Vista. I've not run into any major issues on Vista with offline files, but perhaps Carl has. Regards, Michael B.

It's a "doctor, doctor, it hurts when I do this" problem. I wouln't enable offline files unless it's a laptop user and with the user's understanding that, sometimes, there are 'issues'. I wish I could say it's all better in Vista, but Vista has it's own unique set of issues (but so far, no need to reset cache). Carl From: Joseph L. Casale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2008 6:05 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Offline Files I have mainly XP and some Win2k wkst's and we use Offline Folders for redirected Desktops/My Docs and force offline caching at the share level. Almost every PC always gets corrupted offline cache constantly (Error:5 Source: Offline Files) and I need to manually fix this. Since the path's of some of the redirected folders have changed as well(server migration) most of the users get an error saying redirection failed, but it actually doesn't? Some have this error go away when the CSC folder is cleared, and some it still remains after? Anyone got any knowledge on this they can share?
