If you HAD an offline shortcut, this means that SOMEWHERE on your HD is the file or page, unless you deleted that also when you removed the Temp internet files.[/color red]
You have to SEARCH/FIND the offline file/page you wish to view, and make another shortcut.
Run
Search
*(ANYTHING YOU REMEMBER IN THE NAME OF THE FILE)*
Once you find it:
Right Click/Create Shortcut[/color blue]...etc...
Hope this helps

Yea, I tried the obvious. I ran the help function, imagine that! Hahahahah. If you lose or delete the shortcut created for offline files just do the following:
- open windows explorer
- Tools
- Folder Options
- Offline Files Tab
- check 'Create an Offline Files shortcut on the Desktop'
- Hit OK.
I use WinXP Pro so I'm not sure if these options are the same for all releases. I swear, everytime I post here I find the answer immediately after I post but never before. Patience is a virtue I don't have time for.
