Question asked on Sep 29, 2013
I have SkyDrive on all my various PCs and laptops and whenever I switch on my computers they all dutifully load up with Windows and start syncing, which is just what I want.  However, on my primary PC the SkyDrive client doesn't automatically load-up, I have to click on the short-cut to get it to load.  This is not a settings issue, the little box is ticked that says 'Start SkyDrive automatically when I sign into Windows' so I'm afraid it's not quite as simple as that.  I'd be grateful for some help with this.  Here are a few other facts:

1.  I'm using WIndows 8
2.  I have pointed My Documents into SkyDrive on this PC only
3.  I have pointed Desktop into Skydrive too.

Thank you for your help because this is bugging me and never happened with Dropbox!
