Hi

Maybe this will help:

How to Restart the Offline Files Cache/Database
=================================================

SUMMARY
========
The Offline Files (CSC or Client Side Caching) cache and database has a
built-in capability to restart if its contents are suspected of being
corrupted. If corruption is suspected, the Synchronization Wizard may
return the following error message:

Unable to merge offline changes on \\server_name\share_name. The parameter
is incorrect.

MORE INFORMATION
=================

The Offline Files cache is a folder structure located in the
%SystemRoot%\CSC folder, which is hidden by default. The CSC folder, and
any files and subfolders it contains, should not be modified directly;
doing so can result in data loss and a complete breakdown of Offline Files
functionality.

If you suspect corruption in the database, then the files should be deleted
using the Offline Files viewer. After the files are deleted out of the
Offline Files viewer, a synchronization of files may then be forced using
Synchronization Manager. If the cache still does not appear to function
correctly, an Offline Files reset can be performed using the following
procedure:

1. In Folder Options, on the Offline Files tab, press CTRL+SHIFT, and then
click Delete Files. The following message appears:

The Offline Files cache on the local computer will be re-initialized. Any
changes that have not been synchronized with computers on the network will
be lost. Any files or folders made available offline will no longer be
available offline. A computer restart is required.

Do you wish to re-initialize the cache?

2. Click Yes two times to restart the computer.
