Regseeker
by Guest jimb11 via WindowsKB.com- 8 replies
- 325 views
When I reformat my emachine I take all the crap off of it and then do a scan with regseeker to remove the left over entries in the registry. But if I do a search later for: Compuserve,Netscape,orICQ I still find entries in the registry. I don't understand why there are still entries after I cleaned the registry. Is it safe to delete the left over entries that I found when I did the searches? -- Message posted via WindowsKB.com http://www.windowskb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/windowsxp/200707/1

In such case, where is the wallpaper stored locally? Thanks!

Redirection of Offline Sync Behavior
by Guest Steve W- 5 replies
- 277 views
We use the Offline Sync feature of XP to keep a backup of users 'My Documents' on the server (Windows Server 2003) for backup protection. The problem is that the users must always work off the server when connected and can work off their local hard drive only when disconnected. Many users are in remote offices with desktops and therefore must traverse the WAN - being quite slow and painful (even across T1). Others use VPN; even more painful. Users on the LAN can feel a impact as well. Question - is there a way to redirect the Offline sync feature so that users can always work locally and have the 'offline' folders copied to the server? Thanks! Ste…
