The information in this article applies to:

  • Groove Workspace 2.5 Professional Edition

SYMPTOMS

CAUSE

This problem occurs because of a synchronization bug in Groove Workspace 2.5b or earlier.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, upgrade your version of Groove to a later version of Groove.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, follow these steps:
  1. In Windows Task Manager, click groove.exe, and then click End Process.
  2. Restart Groove.
  3. If you do not have a copy of the file that was renamed two times, make a copy by exporting the file.
  4. Delete the original file that was renamed two times.
  5. Synchronize to the SharePoint Web site again.
  6. If you still want to use the exported file, add the file back into Groove.
