Offline Files & multiple users on laptops

[Brian M]

Howdy-

With multiple users on one laptop all having offline files setup, is
there a reason why User2 is always prompted for connection to User1's share?

It seems like each user who logs on sees or is prompted for
synchronization to all other users' shares. Is this by design? Or is
there some configuration I'm missing?

TIA,
BM

That is the current behavior... Offline Files seems to be designed
for 1 Offline User...

Only thing I can recommend is letting MS know that you would like this
feature change - http://www.microsoft.com/mswish

The more people who express their support of this feature, the more
likely it is to be changed in the future.
