To reset the offline files cache in Windows 7

  1. Create a registry file called resetcache.reg file with the following contents:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\CSC\Parameters] "FormatDatabase"=dword:00000001
  2. Double click the file and it should merge with registry. Alternatively, use command line:
    E.g. regedit.exe /s resetcache.reg
