Windows 10 Offline Files will not Sync

Question

Brand new domain using Windows 10 workstations and Server 2012 R2 Domain Controllers. Standard folder redirection GPO

Picture of the issue:

Files are being redirected to a windows 2012 r2 high availability cluster. As seen in the picture we are unable to sync these files.

File Share Settings

• Access-based enumeration - enabled
• Continuos availiblity - disabled
• Allow Caching of share - enabled
• Encrypt data access - enabled

Solution

Issue has been resolved.

Turns out my Users$ share permissions were too restrictive for Sync Center (and MS Publisher). I had Create Folders, and Traverse Folder allowed, I needed to add List Folder, Read Attributes, Read Extended Attributes.

Have you enabled offline files in Sync Center on the Windows 10 clients?

Offline Files in sync center is enabled by default. I can deactivate offline files but then I have to retrieve the unsynced files from the c:\windows\csc\ folder and then it makes things a little difficult for laptop users not being able to undock without losing access to their files.
