Let the WIN8 system SkyDrive play a greater role

Tips for improving the usability of WIN8 systems SkyDrive

"The solution to the idea"

Under Windows 8 defaults, all files in the desktop version SkyDrive are online available, and the file is downloaded to the local area only after a file has been opened. We can break through this point to solve.

"Workaround"

into the Windows 8 desktop environment, open File Explorer, select SkyDrive under the left navigation tree, select files or folders that you want to use frequently in the right pane, right-click, and choose Offline Available from the right-click menu, so that these files are available if there is no network. This, of course, takes up hard disk space.

If you have enough hard disk space, you can also consider setting all the files to be available offline: Open SkyDrive from the Start screen, select Settings from the Super toolbar, go to the Settings screen, select options, and in the right pane, set offline access all files to Enabled. If you right-click the SkyDrive folder or file in your desktop environment, the right-click menu increases the option to only be available online.

In this way, we will be able to use the SkyDrive cloud service more comfortably under Windows 8. Although the domestic cloud service products such as Baidu Cloud do also very good, but skydrive by virtue of the integration of the system with the advantages, always get a part of the people's favor.
