The Windows 7 system has built-in offline shared access. This function not only enables users to access shared resources in the unit LAN when the system is offline, but also keeps the contents of the shared resources up to date. However, once the shared resources in the LAN use the offline access function, these shared resources are automatically stored in the local computer system, and others can easily access the shared resources without logging in to the LAN file server or authenticating. Specific content.
If the shared resource contains important confidential information or privacy content, then it is obviously inappropriate. Since offline shared content is stored by default in the X:\\windows\\CSC\\v2.0.6\ amespace\\Server folder of the Windows 7 system (other Server is the host name of the file server in the local area network), ordinary users can directly access it. The content of it. To prevent unrelated people from seeing important shared content, you need to encrypt offline shared content. The specific encryption steps are as follows: (1) Click the "Start → Control Panel" command, and click the “Sync Center" icon in the pop-up system control panel window to display the area on the left side of the sync center management window. Click the “Manage Offline Files” link to bring up the Offline File Properties dialog box. (2) Click the “Encryption” tab in the dialog box to open the option settings page as shown in the figure, click on the “Encrypt” button, and then the Windows 7 system will automatically use the EFS. Encryption securely encrypts offline files. If you want to leave your computer for a long time, you can use the system administrator account to log in to the system again, and temporarily disable offline files in this permission state to protect the information. To temporarily disable the system offline file, you can open the Offline File Properties dialog box as before, click on the “General” tab, and click the “Disable offline file” button in the corresponding option settings page. This will achieve the purpose of prohibiting offline files. Alternatively, you can open the System Explorer window directly, go to the “X:\\windows\\CSC\\v2.0.6\ amespace\\Server” folder, hit the target offline shared folder, and right-click the folder. Icon, and cancel the "Always offline available" option in the shortcut menu, which also achieves the purpose of disabling offline files.
