Cannot delete folder in local Live Mesh Folders RRS feed

  • General discussion

  • I deleted a folder on the Live Desktop, but the folder is still showing in the [UserName]>Live Mesh Folders folder on my local PC. The folder icon is dimmed on the PC. When I try to delete the folder from my PC, I get a message that I need to go to my Live Desktop and delete the folder there. But I've already deleted it from the Live Desktop. How can I get this folder cleared out of my local Live Mesh Folders folder?

  • Is the PC connected to the Mesh? Logged in?
    One way to resolve this would be remove the machine from your Mesh at www.mesh.com and then uninstall Live Mesh. You can then delete the folder, then add the machine back to the Mesh and set up the sync relationships again. Painful if you have lots of folders/files set to Sync, of course...
