  • Enable the Always Offline Mode to Provide Faster Access to Files
    Enable the Always Offline Mode to Provide Faster Access to Files 13 out of 16 rated this helpful - Rate this topic Published: April 18, 2012 Updated: July 3, 2013 Applies To: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2 This document describes how to use the Always Offline mode of Offline Files to provide faster access to cached files and redirected folders. Always Offline also provides lower bandwidth usage because users are always working offline, even when they are connected through a high- speed network connection. In this document Prerequisites Enabling the Always Offline mode Prerequisites To enable the Always Offline mode, your environment must meet the following prerequisites. An Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain, with client computers joined to the domain. There are no forest or domain functional-level requirements or schema requirements. Client computers running Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012 R2, or Windows Server 2012. (Client computers running earlier versions of Windows might continue to transition to Online mode on very high-speed network connections.) A computer with Group Policy Management installed. Enabling the Always Offline mode To enable the Always Offline mode, use Group Policy to enable the Configure slow-link mode policy setting and set the latency to 1 (millisecond). Doing so causes client computers running Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012 to automatically use the Always Offline mode. Note Computers running Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows Server 2008 might continue to transition to the Online mode if the latency of the network connection drops below one millisecond.
