HI Guys

Hoping that you would be able to assist me with an issue i have at work.

We are all connected to a NAS device that has all our documents and templates etc. Users have the option to setup certain files / folders for Offline sync so that they can continue working on them when not in the office. Users are all using Win7 Pro

Issue:
When the users reconnect to the network and attempt to synchronise the offline files / folders they get a synchronisation error in Windows Sync Center with the following message - A file changed on this computer while offline has been deleted or renamed on the server.

This error comes up even if there are no documents deleted, i.e. in the case that you open one file, edit it and save it while offline, the error still comes up.

Has anyone else experienced a similar issue and was able to resolve it?
 
Doesn't look like this is getting any resolution.

After much searching and testing it appears that sync centre is broken for lack of a better term. Something in Win7 SP1 broke it so the behaviour will continue to be exhibited. WE have now moved to using Goodsync for the requirement and this is working flawlessly.
