Recover offline files?

[Devon]

A file Server was taken offline and wiped out. The user
had "Offline files' syncronized to that server. The user
accedently unchecked the 'Enable Offline Files' box and
click ok. All files in the 'Offline Files' folder was
deleted. How can I recover these files?

Restore from backups. If there are no backups then the files weren't
that important anyway.

And in the future, note that offline files is a huge pain in the butt -
check out SecondCopy 2000 at www.centered.com. It's become part of my
standard build for laptop/remote workstations.

If the files got deleted, you will need to restore them from backup.
