What characterizes an Offline File?

An Offline File is characterized by its ability to be stored on a network and synchronized locally. This means that when a user accesses a file that is designed to be used offline, the file is initially located on a centralized server but is also cached on the user's local machine. This synchronization process allows the user to work with the file without an active internet connection, making it accessible offline.

When changes are made to the offline version of the file, those changes are saved locally and later synchronized back to the server when the user reconnects to the network. This feature is particularly useful in environments where users may not always have reliable access to the network, as it enables continued productivity without any disruption due to connectivity issues.

In contrast, the other options do not accurately define the nature of Offline Files. They describe characteristics or limitations that do not apply, making the choice of the correct characteristic clear.
