Windows 7 file synch acting crazy

C

CANews

Hi I'm having problems with Windows Sync working with Offline Files. The
following are
symptoms that I'm seeing. Unless otherwise noted, treat them as though
they are completely separate items as they don't always occur together:
1.
I'll find undeleted .TMP files left over after
working with the associated Excel, Word, etc. file. These are left over even
though the files and applications were closed / terminated normally. When I
run Sync, these.TMP files show up as unresolved sync errors.
2.
When I take action to resolve to resolve the conflicts
noted in #1 by deleting the files, they don't disappear from the
application interface until I close the sync application. If I close and
reopen
the app, the conflicts no longer show up; however if I then run SYNC again,
the
app still tells me there are sync conflicts although they are not listed.
The
only thing that will fix this last part of the problem is a reboot. Note
that
#2 always results when #1 occurs.
3.
Occasionally, file writes will take a very long time to
process. This may or may not result in #1 or #2, and as a matter of fact
it's very difficult to know for sure. However I suspect that this does
happen. About 20 minutes ago I saved a file and noticed the delay. I checked
the security log because I had noted something similar in the past.

Hi

Did you ever manage to resolves this issue? I have had exactly the same
problems with TMP files for a few months now ...

Thanks.
