I have a Vista Business Edition laptop. The help desk guy before me setup a sync to sync an entire user directory on a network. The problem is the harddrive is filling up with to much data. I want to stop this process. I want to completely remove the sync and just have his &quot;My Documents&quot; sync. I have disabled the sync under &quot;Offine Files&quot; and it turns back on and begins to sync again after reboot. How do i kill this for good. Also... will rebuilding the profile fix this issue or is the offline files stored and used at the Windows level not the users profile level.

How do I stop the Offline Files sync process in Windows Vista?

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
