| Guest | Network Files and Folders disappear using Vista Hello. I have an issue with a Vista Business user losing files and folders on a Windows 2003 SBS network. In the first instance, quite a few files disappeared from the user's My Documents folder which is redirected to the SBS server. About a month later, another instance arose. He was organizing folders on a network share. He was moving folders, which each contain a few files, from one folder to another. He moved a folder, opened that folder to verify the contents, then went to go back to the original folder. At this point he found that the original folder was gone. I search the entire directory on the server, and it was indeed gone. I restored that folder from a backup. He then proceeded to work more with these folders. He right clicked on one folder and chose to delete. The message appeared that stated that the [folder name] folder would be deleted, are you sure? He clicked yes. Then, the message came up that stated that over 300 files were being deleted. Not only was the folder deleted that he chose, but the entire parent folder was also deleted. I again had to restore from a backup. I again search the folder structure and they did not get moved to another location inadvertently. I have applied the registry fix for OpLocks already to this server after the first instance of losing files. I thought everything was working ok until today. What is the cause of this and what is the solution? Thanks for your help. KT |
