Guest supersonic_oasis Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 Hello, We run a Windows 2003 domain. Our laptop users homefolders are made available off line through the use of Group Policy. The problem I have is this: User A leaves the company, before I give User A's laptop to a different user, I need to get the laptop to STOP trying to synchronize usr A's homefolder. I have tried the following: *Getting properties of User A in ADUAC and getting rid of their home folder path. *Deleting the User A's local profile on the laptop None of the above works, it still tries to sync to their folder when logging out of the laptop. If I am logged in as User A, and I right-click on their home-folder, I cannot un-check Make Available Offline. What do I need to do? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

First uncheck anything set to use Offline Files. If folder redirection is enabled for the user, remove them from the policy and restart. Delete the windows\csc folder contents (not the folder). Then restart. If it will not delete the first time, restart, then delete, then restart.
