RE: Replacement for Windows 7 Offline files?
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.

Re: Replacement for Windows 7 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. *ASB* * * On Fri, Oct 8, 2010 at 2:03 PM, Craig Gauss cra...@sound-solutions.bizwrote: 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.

RE: Replacement for Windows 7 Offline files?
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.
