Help! Sync Center has filled 300GB hard drive
W7 Pro x64 with all updates in place. Synced to Server 2008 attached Media Files. Syncing files to be available when offline. Due to my mistake, the file Sync Center has taken over my 300GB hard drive. I have stopped the syncing but how do I get my hard drive back? [Sync center said out of space so I increased the allowed space without checking first] Where do I find the synced files and how do I delete them?

Okay, I luckily stumbled onto the solution: Computer/C:/Windows/v2.0.6/namespace/Server/drive letter/file After doing some ownership finagling I was able to delete most of the bloated file, although there are a couple small files that won't delete for ownership issues. At least I now have 164 GB shown as free!!!! Micrometeor
