Can anyone advise?
I have just removed an offline file facility from my PC, as I no longer need to access the files offline.
Where were the cached versions stored on my PC so I can delete them? as there was quite a lot I need to free up this disk space.
Any advice greatly appreciated
 
Not sure, but you could try Temporary internet files or temp folders.
 
Do u mean offline internet files or offline outlook files.
If its the former, right click on ur hardrive, cleanup.
If the latter do a search for *.ost and delete whatever comes up.

They are stored in a folder that is both Hidden and System called: C:\WINNT\CSC
 
are these just offline files cache or are there other items in there that would cause issues if deleted?. In other words can I delete all the files in C:\winnt\csc without causing problems to my os?

Many thanks
 
I would look under the c:\Documents and Settings\Userx)
Then I think they are stored in the Local Settings.
 
thanks bcastner. much appreciated
