I set up a laptop with Windows 7 and Offline Files yesterday.  The
Offline Files is terrible in Windows 7.  You have to click too much for
the normal user.  Does anyone know of any decent replacements for
Offline files?  Looking for something Open Source.

From what I experienced you had to go into sync center, then offline
files, then through the folder hierarchy to finally get to the files.
Unlike XP where it was directly in the folder on the desktop.  Maybe I
missed something?

I haven’t seen, used or set it up yet, but I know Synch Toy has started being 
used on a handful of workstation machines here. No complaints heard, only that 
it works “better” than offline files.

I haven't had to do that.  The offline files are right where I have expected
them to be if the drive was previously mapped.  Also available if you use
UNC mapping to the location.

RE: Replacement for Windows 7 Offline files?

2010-10-08 Thread John Hornbuckle
We use folder redirection for users' desktops and My Documents folders, and 
offline files so that they'll still have access to their stuff if they lose 
connection to the network. Can't say I've seen any clicking necessary, except 
in cases of file version conflicts.
