Offline files suddenly disabled

[thimon]

Hi all,

 

We've got a puzzler. For some reason, with no changes having been made in Group Policy, Offline Files has decided to disable itself on staff laptops. You cannot manually start it in Control Panel as the option is greyed out saying "Offline Files is disabled". If you go to services and try to manually start Offline Files you get the attached error message, "Windows counts not start the Offline Files service on Local Computer. Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified." Has anyone come across this error before? Driving me mad!
