DFSR delete the file before replication

RDC is not involved here. The behavior you are describing is an interop problem between application behaviors in Office and with DFSR. Office operates differently than almost any user app on Earth in how it constantly locks, swaps, replaces files.
Did recreating file servers (I don;t know what this means) solve the issue? You need to reopen this case, MS Support should not have closed it, they should have escalated it.

NedPyle A case was opened with MS and I worked with them for at least 6-7 days but it was not solved. They asked me to create all file servers again.
As far as I think, RDC is not working properly. Because files are replicating, but they get removed before replicating again. As per RDC, it should only replicate the changes to the file. If you have anything by which I can check the functionality of RDC and recommendations to check for RDC proper functionality. Please share it with me.

NedPyle I didn't recreate all 20 servers. I just left it as it is because I was trying to find the best solution to move everything to the cloud.
But your reply gave me a new direction to work on this issue again. Before opening a case with MS again. Can you please help me from where I can start finding the root cause?

It needs the attention of MS Support, I cannot help you in this level of detail. Please work with them and escalate the case.

Thanks for your help NedPyle. I really appreciate the same. But I am really confused about how to start this thing with Microsoft regarding MS Office.
