Resetting Windows Vista offline files
I can’t delete an offline file cache. The solution is resetting the offline files db:
Add the FormatDatabase registry entry to the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Csc\
Parameters
Then, set the FormatDatabase registry entry to 1.
If the key Parameters does not exist, create it; then create a DWORD entry for FormatDatabase.
The restart the computer.



I was having the same problems – worked like a champ, thanks!
