desktops.
Group Policy Setting Description
Hide local offline file
icon
Determines whether to hide the offline icon when a user views locally stored files that belong to
the user profile. Enabling this setting hides the offline icon in Windows Explorer and most
Windows dialog boxes.
By default, the offline icon is hidden.
Show progress when
downloading large
files
Determines whether to display a progress window on a user's desktop when the client retrieves
large files from the remote repository.
When this setting is enabled, you can specify the minimum file size, in megabytes, to begin
displaying the progress window. The window is displayed when View Persona Management
determines that the specified amount of data will be retrieved from the remote repository. This
value is an aggregate of all files that are retrieved at one time.
For
example, if the setting value is 50MB and a 40MB file is retrieved, the window is not displayed.
If a 30MB file is retrieved while the first file is still being downloaded, the aggregate download
exceeds the value and the progress window is displayed. The window appears when a file starts
downloading.
By default, this value is 50MB.
By default, this progress window is not displayed.
Show critical errors to
users via tray icon
alerts
Displays critical error icon alerts in the desktop tray when replication or network connectivity
failures occur.
By default, these icon alerts are hidden.
