A client of mine has just purchased a new laptop installed
with Windows XP Home. She wants to use the laptop for her
home business while waiting for her kids at school and
sport, and then synchronise her files when she gets home.
The Help files tell you to make use of the Offline Files
tab page from My Computer, Tools, Folder Options (once
fast user switching is disabled), but this tab page does
not appear anywhere. Am I correct in assuming that XP Home
does not support offline files, even though its Help
suggests strongly that it does?
 
Hi Dave,

Your assumption is correct. Offline files is only available in WinXP Pro.
