Windows 7 Synchronization of Local Files
Hello, I have a question about Windows 7 File & Folder Synchronization. Here’s my scenario.
Basically, we have a user with a laptop that works from the office and at home. She will create/edit documents locally on her machine when at home. This is dangerous because we don’t any means redundancy towards these documents.
Is it possible to sync all changes of her local drive to a network share when she connects to the company network? Like an automatic sync when she docks her laptop.
Thank you for your time.

We use offline files like LeeTutor stated and it works great for our laptop users.
