Configuring Offline Files to Only Sync for the Primary User
Hi,
In Windows XP I was able to setup Offline Files (along with Folder Redirection) to only sync files while a user was logged into their primary PC. This prevent people who roamed from having their files copied to numerous PC's. The problem is I'm
unable to find out what I need to configure in order to have this same behavior on Windows 7 x64. Can someone please help point me in the right direction?
Thank you,
Danny

Hi Milos,
Thanks for reaching out and responding to my post but unfortonately I did see many of those postings but none of them explicitly say how to prevent synching from occuring on PC's that the user is not deemed the primary user (or owner) on. Perhaps I'm
missing something? Do I need to change a registry value as I did in XP? Any help would be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Danny
