Please log in for more thread options I think I am able to repro the issue you hit, when I copy \My
Documents\Templates\Blank Document.etc to my desktop, I am not able view the
file. Though when I attempt to copy it again, the shell prompts me saying
that the file already exists. If this is the issue you are hitting, it is
caused by an inconsistency between how the windows explorer handles files
and the way the ActiveSync shell extension does.
By Default, the shell explorer does not display system files while the
ActiveSync shell extension does, when the file gets copied it is
automatically filtered on the desktop which makes it seem that it disappear.
Thanks,
