However, if you use a small SSD or small system partitions, you will quickly run into problems. In that case there is no other choice than to put the files on another partition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>With this function, Windows 10 makes the data of a network drive available even when the device has no internet or access to the network drive.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If an offline file synchronization already exists, it must be disconnected beforehand. The disconnection is done the same way as the creation: right-click the corresponding folder and deactivate \u201cAlways available offline\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Search for \u201cRegedit\u201d in the search box in the taskbar and run the program. Then select the path <strong>[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\services\\CSC\\Parameters]<\/strong> in the selection box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/linux\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/windows-10-regedit-offline-synkronisierung-speicherpfad-aendern.png.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There, use \u201cNew\u201d to create a string value with the name \u201cCacheLocation\u201d. Then right-click it, choose \u201cModify\u201d and enter the new path in NT format. So \u201c<strong>H:\\Media<\/strong>\u201d becomes \u201c<strong>\\??\\h:\\Media<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/linux\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/windows-10-regedit-editor-bearbeitet.png.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now the computer must be restarted. Do not create the specified directory beforehand \u2013 Windows takes care of that on its own. This also lets you verify that it worked: if a folder with that name was created under the specified path, everything is working as intended.<\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/plain\" data-tcf=\"waiting-for-consent\" data-id=\"4799\" data-bid=\"2\" data-placement=\"4800\">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<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Windows 10 stores offline files under C:\\Windows\\CSC by default.
