Hello David,
Thank you for kind update.
When a shared folder on the server is deleted, clients are not aware that
the folder was deleted, and do not have the means to delete the item from
Synchronization Manager.
For example, \\ ServerName \Catalog is shared and registered. The system
administrator deletes the files in the shared Catalog folder, and then
deletes the shared folder itself. The result is that users on client
systems do not know that the folder was deleted and do not have the means
to delete the item from Synchronization Manager.
On a client computer, there is no way to distinguish between a share being
offline for some reason and the share having been removed. A shared folder
may be deleted temporarily and then brought back online. Because of this,
Microsoft takes a conservative approach and continues to display the share
in Synchronization Manager.
This behavior is by design.
If you use the Synchronization Manager to schedule a file or folder for
synchronization, and that file or folder is then deleted from the server,
the file or folder may still be displayed in the Synchronization Manager on
the client computer.
This behavior can occur because the files or folders are cached on the
client computer, and they are not automatically removed when a shared file
or folder is deleted from a server.
To work around this behavior, remove the deleted file or folder from the
Offline Files Folder on the client computer:
1. Double-click My Computer , click Folder Options on the Tools menu, and
then click the Offline Files tab.
2. Click View Files , click the name of the file or folder you want to
delete, click Edit , and then click Delete .
This behavior is by design.
Hope these steps will give you some help.
Thanks and have a nice day!
Best regards,
Terence Liu(MSFT)
