I set up a network location to a shared folder on my network. It would only
work occasionally, letting me view and edit files on my computer but not saving them to the remote computer. To try and fix this problem I unchecked "always available offline" for the folder, which has resulted in a state where I can't access the folder on the other computer, can't access the changed files that were available offline on my computer, and can't alter or delete the network location. Specifically, in My Computer right clicking on the network location causes the window to freeze. When I double click on the network location, it appears to be loading, but never finishes and ultimately also freezes the window. Clicking on the icon and pressing the delete or backspace buttons, or dragging the icon to the recycle bin, do not work. Being connected or disconnected from the network has no effect. Does anyone have suggestions for how to fix this problem? |
