#Folder turned into a file Offline#

Offline FilesВ makes network files available to a user, even if the network connection to the server is unavailable or slow.The files in the folder are then available to the user from any computer on the network. For example, you can redirect the Documents folder, which is usually stored on a local drive, to a network location. Users interact with files in the redirected folder as if it still existed on the local drive. The new location can be a folder on the local computer or a directory on a file share. Folder RedirectionВ enables users and administrators to redirect the path of a known folder to a new location, manually or by using Group Policy.These features used to be referred to as Intellimirror. Roaming User Profiles is used to redirect a user profile to a network location. Technology descriptionДЇolder Redirection and Offline Files are used together to redirect the path of local folders (such as the Documents folder) to a network location, while caching the contents locally for increased speed and availability.
