Offline file service causes file redirection to fail (Network Service)

Today's colleague computers cannot redirect Remote Desktop to file server after any account is logged on. No exception was found by looking at the relevant domain policy. The problem is on this computer, by viewing the native log discovery: The app policy failed to redirect the folder "desktop" to the "\\xx.xx.xx.xx.\desktop$\CDD\ desktop". Redirection option =0x9211.

Suspect is a permission issue and then manually access "\\xx.xx.xx.xx.\desktop$\CDD\", CDD users do not find desktop files, in the heart of a surprise file server problems? Immediately go to file server to see that the file server file is OK.

It is strange that the file server in the CDD user directory, there is a desktop file, but why not to this one? Decide to delete the configuration file try to delete the restart after the problem is still.

I tried to open the Desktop folder root directory "\\xx.xx.xx.xx.\desktop$\", even if there are no files in the root directory, I suddenly found that the folder shows: Offline Status: Offline, so I canceled offline. The Desktop folder root directory is displayed immediately. It turned out to be an offline ghost.

After you restart the computer, you shut down the Offline Files offline file service in the service by running Services.msc. The problem is solved perfectly, it may be that the colleague made a mistake in the offline setting that caused this issue to occur. So this service is disabled, in fact, in a production environment network is definitely no problem, no need to open this service, turn on the service will have some problems, such as synchronization problems, or similar problems today.

The following is a description of the Offline Files:

Free Machine File

If you ever need to access important files stored on a shared folder on your network, but you can't access them because your laptop is disconnected from the network, you can understand the need for offline files. With offline files, you can access a copy of a network file even if your computer is not connected to the network.

Using offline Files is easy. Just select the files (or folders) on the network that you want to be available offline. Windows automatically creates a copy of each file on your computer. These replicas are referred to as "Offline Files." These files can be used even if you are not connected to the network, and the next time you connect, Windows will automatically synchronize the offline files with the original files in the network folder.

For detailed instructions on how to use offline files, see Using network files while offline.

You can access network files when you connect to the network where the files are stored.
When you are not connected to the network, you have access to a local copy of the network files.

Reasons to use Offline Files
Using offline files has several advantages for people who use files stored in shared network folders. By using offline files, you can:

Unaffected by network outages. When working with offline files, it doesn't matter whether the network is down or the network folder you are accessing is not available. If either of these conditions occurs, Windows automatically opens an offline copy of the file that is stored on your computer instead of accessing the files in the network folder, and you can continue working without interruption.

Use files when leaving the network. When you disconnect from the network, you typically cannot open any files that are stored on the network. With offline files, you can still have a copy of all network files that are set to be available offline after you disconnect from the network. This is especially useful when travelling with a laptop computer.

Easy synchronization with network files. Any time you want to synchronize with the latest version of a file in a network folder, you can do so with a single click of a button.

Increase efficiency when working on slower connections. When connecting to a network with a slow connection, the use of files in shared network folders is inefficient and slow. To speed up, you can easily switch to using offline copies of network files at any time.

Keep Offline Files synchronized
When you select a network file or folder that you want to make available offline, Windows automatically creates a copy of the file or folder on your computer. When you reconnect to a network folder at any time, Windows synchronizes the files with the corresponding files in the network folder. You can also manually synchronize these files at any time.

This is what you need to know to keep your offline files synchronized. However, for some curious people, there are some other details:

If you work offline and make changes to offline files in a network folder, Windows automatically synchronizes any changes you make to the file the next time you connect to that network folder.

If you make changes to files in a shared network folder while you are working offline, Windows synchronizes the changes with the offline files on your computer the next time you connect to that network folder. If you also change these files after you last connected to a network folder, a synchronization conflict occurs and Windows asks which version you want to keep.

Depending on the size of your hard disk, you may need to manage the amount of space your offline files use. For more information, see Managing disk space for offline files.
