RE: Recovering Offline Files

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Thanks for your reply Quintin!

Unfortunately the server was running RAID. I have scanned the server with
software called NTPhoenix and recovered some data but most of it was corrupt.

The problem is that the laptop had offline folders set up and should have a
local copy of some of the data on it. I can't seem to find this data.
According to microsoft the default location for offline files is
%systemroot%\CSC. This folder on the laptop is 9GB in size which suggests to
me that there must be some data in it but i cannot use it as it is system
files. I am trying to find a way to convert these files into the documents
that they used to be or to somehow recover them.
