SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:
  • On a computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, you have some offline files.
  • The Desktop folder is redirected to a network folder by a Group Policy setting.
In this scenario, the offline file icons on the desktop randomly change to different icons every time that you refresh the desktop. For example, you expect the offline files to be represented by green synchronization icons. However, these icons may change to other icons, such as to a magnifying glass icon, to a two-person icon, or to a shortcut arrow.

This issue typically occurs when there are many offline files on the desktop.

  • Windows Vista
  • Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1)
  • Windows Server 2008

Restart requirement

You must restart the computer after you apply this hotfix.

File information

The English version of this hotfix has the file attributes (or later file attributes) that are listed in the following table. The dates and times for these files are listed in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). When you view the file information, it is converted to local time. To find the difference between UTC and local time, use the Time Zone tab in the Date and Time item in Control Panel.

Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 file information notes

  • The files that apply to a specific product, milestone (RTM, SPn) can be identified by examining the file version numbers as shown in the following table:
    Collapse this tableExpand this table
    VersionProductMilestoneService branch
    6.0.6000.20xxx Windows RTM LDR
    Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 SP1 SP1 GDR
    6.0.6001.22xxx Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 SP1 SP1 LDR
  • Service Pack 1 is integrated into Windows Server 2008. Therefore, RTM milestone files apply only to Windows Vista. RTM milestone files have a 6.0.0000.xxxxxx version number.
  • The MANIFEST files (.manifest) and MUM files (.mum) that are installed for each environment are listed separately. MUM and MANIFEST files, and the associated security catalog (.cat) files, are critical to maintaining the state of the updated component. The security catalog files (attributes not listed) are signed with a Microsoft digital signature.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
