How to change offline folder file settings?

A

abkate

My offline cache for Exchange is currently set to C:\Documents and
Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\outlook.ost.

I don't have a lot of room on C: though and want to relocate the offline
folder, but when I go to the Offline Folder Settings part of the Exchange
Server properties, the location of the offline folder is greyed out and there
doesn't seem to be anywhere I can change it.

Any suggestions?

First you have to disable offline folders and cached Exchange mode and close
and reopen Outlook. You should then be able to manipulate the location.

Google Groups is your friend. Here's a complete description of how I did
it.
