"Always Available Offline" option has gone.

Hi,

I'm running Vista Business and up to few days ago when a right clicked to a
file on a network drive it had an "Always available offline" listed in the
options, this no longer there so I can not set up files to sync etc.

Any thoughts on how I can get it back, it definitely was there a week ago.

Regards,
Tony

Same problem here.

Also, possibly related:

1. In Sync Center, all of my sync relationships have disappeared.
Previously I had one partnership, with a folder on my main desktop machine.

2. It won't let me create any new partnerships (says "There are no new sync
partnerships that can be set up on this computer")

3. After every reboot the Event Log contains a message saying "The Offline
Files service terminated with the following error: The system cannot find the
file specified" (no indication of what file it cannot find).

4. The Sync Center icon no longer appears in the taskbar.

All of this used to work: I was successfully syncing stuff between this
laptop and my desktop. The shared folder that the sync partnership was
managing is fully accessible to the laptop.

Any ideas?

I managed to fix the problem by manually changing the registry. I will try
and find the link to the instruction i followed.
