Frequently Asked Questions: Offline Files
Q-1. How do I move the CSC folder to
another location on a Windows 7 computer?
A-1. The default location of the Offline
Folders cache is %systemroot%\csc. If you need to move this cache to
another location on your computer for some reason, follow these steps:
1. Set the following REG_DWORD registry
key to a value of 1:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC\Parameters\MigrationParamters
Doing this ensures that all items in the
cache are migrated (the default behavior is to migrate only dirty
items).
2. Run the Windows Easy Transfer wizard.
Once the data has been scanned, a Customize link is displayed. Click
this link and make sure that Windows Settings is checked for all items
displayed in the list.
3. Once you have collected the data, set
the following String registry key to specify the new cache location:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC\Parameters\CacheLocation
For example, to move the cache to a
folder named CSCCache on your D: drive, specify the following value:
\??\D:\CSCCache
4. Now reboot your computer, run the Easy
Transfer wizard again and apply the previously gathered files. Then
reboot one more time when prompted by the wizard.
