Disabling Offline Files
|
By default when you redirect a folder Offline Folders is enabled in XP. I want to disable the the "Enable Offline Files" feature. I can grey it out and remove the tab but I can't actually untick the box. Any ideas ?
Cheers,

BTW, I want to do this with Kix not a GPO.

hmm...
at least you can do it by removing mobsync.exe (not 100% sure of name...) from the system.
the initial startup will be in registry run-key.
check the localmachine and currentuser.
don't have XP to try here but do some googling:
mobsync.exe disable xp
k?

Dear,
There should be a registry key. The link Troubleshooting Files and Folders Management shows following info
quote:Mostly www.winguides.com shows some interesting things. Now we
KeyName: Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetCache
ValueName: Enabled
ValueType: REG_SZ
Value:
found only Change the Offline Files Synchronization Method (Windows 2000/XP) as registry
issue.
something on their forum
quote:greetings.
I have disabled offline files using the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\NetCache\Enabled: 0x00000000
However this is on WinXP Pro and I am not sure if it will work on 2k.
Good luck.
