"Access denied" message on offline files
The environment:- Windows Server 2003 R2 with AD- User shares with full access to the AD-user and administrators, share rights and folder/files rights+-Computer running fresh installation of Windows 7 Pro, configured as domain member computer- Domain user with connected user share from above server- This user as administrator rights on the local computer- One folder of the user share should be offline availableThe problem:- When I try to make the folder offline available, there are many error messages "Access denied"- When I try to write a new file (for example a new Word-document), in some folder of the share which is offline available, I can not write (Access denied)- If I stop the offline functions for this folder, I can write to any folder without any problems!- I tried this with several domain users on the local computer, the problem is machine spezificOn others computers running Windows 7 I can not replicate this problem.I cleared the CSC-cache several times, stopped and started again offline functions ....I tried everything again with and without file compression ....To prevent any questions about the rights of the shares or folders for the users: Yes, the current user has write permission (i changed anyway to full access) on the share and on ALL folders and files as well, at the same time the user is owner of his share and the containing folders/files.The same user doesnt have this problems with the same computer running Windows XP beforeAny suggestions?Best regardsFrank

Where does the shared folder locate, on the Windows Server 2003 computer or on a network storage? I suggest you change the default NTLM authentication level on the Windows 7 computer. Network security: LAN Manager authentication level Please change the level to Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated. If the issue persists, please temporary disable the anti-virus on the Windows 7 computer and the Windwos Sever 2003 computer.Arthur Xie - MSFT
