Hello In windows 7 unsychronized offline changes will be deleted without warning when the parent folder on the network has been deleted Steps to reproduce: 1. From this path: \\server\test$\folder1\folder2, folder2 has been made "Always available offline" on my laptop 2. When Offline, on the laptop I create \\server\test$\folder1\folder2\Test.txt 3. Before coming online with the laptop, on the server I delete \\server\test$\folder1 and all subfolders 4. After coming Online with the laptop \\server\test$\folder1\folder2\Test.txt will be deleted without warning It looks as though this is 'By Design', but I cannot believe deleting Unsynchronized offline changes without warning was meant to be Recovering the file with several recovering tools seems to be impossible as well Does anyone have an solution or explanation for this behaviour?
