I have a slight problem with a laptop at a clinets. they are running xp pro sp2 and seem to be having problems accessing a drive offline. When i look at the offline properties, the disk space used for the cache is set st 2%, if i change it, OK the change, then check again, it's reverted back to 2%! I've tried forcing it via a group policy but still the same thing. Any ideas?

Offline Files
- Thread starter WNelson28
- Start date
In Windows 2000 and Windows XP there is a 2GB limit on the amount of files that can be stored in the Offline Files cache. The cache size setting on the Offline Files property page does not currently consider this limit when adjusting the cache size. Therefore, if you set the control to a value greater than 2GB, the control will be positioned at 2GB the next time you open the Offline Files property page.
Note that the cache size setting in the Offline Files property page applies only to auto-cached files. Those are files opened from network shares configured for "Automatic Caching". Files cached via the "Make Available Offline" option in the Windows Shell are not subject to this size setting.
