Extra Folders When Using Offline Files



We have recently begun using offline folders (offline files) and all
seems to be working well. The issues is that we are seeing some empty
folders on our laptops when no connected.

For example I might choose R:\FolderA\SubA\A.doc to sync.

I see this folder structure and file when offline.

However I also see R:\FolderB\SubB\ ... but I have no recollection of
syncing this folder. Furthermore there is no "synced" icon next to the
folders.

Also when I right click on them, the Make Available Offline is
unchecked.

So what gives? Why am I seeing these networked folders?

Thanks, Sean
