files missing after changing offline folders in sync center to disabled from enabled

I have a user that was working in a folder that was set to be available offline. The files on the server was older than the files on the PC. when syncing was turned off using sync center the newer files on the PC have vanished. Have they been deleted? If nit, where would they be on the PC? If sync offline folders is re-enabled will the recover the newer files on the local PC? The OS is Windows 7 32-bit

the offline files are still in a hidden directory on the local PC. however they are encrypted an inaccessible until sync is re enabled. you can probable b
do this while not connected to the network to ensure that the older files don't overwrite the newer ones.
