The value of the WebDAV timeout cache in Windows® 7 is 60 seconds. In order to change the time out cache value, you will need to modify theHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MRxDAV\Parameters\FileNotFoundCacheLifeTimeInSec registry key. This action is necessary because there is no mechanism in place that will flush the cache on demand.
Modifying the registry key
- At the command prompt, run the Regedit command. This opens the Registry Editor.
- Locate and then double click the following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MRxDAV\Parameters\FileNotFoundCacheLifeTimeInSec.
- In the Edit DWORD (32-bit) Value dialog box, change the value in the Value data: text box to your desired value and click OK. The value of the WebDAV timeout cache has now been changed.
