Question asked on Aug 12, 2013
I've been a fan of Google Drive for years, but thought I'd try Skydrive. It seemed ok at first, but now I'm frustrated.
I signed up for an account, and I downloaded the app. I copied files into the Skydrive directory, and the files eventually were visible from the Skydrive website. So yesterday, I put a bunch more files into the directory, and as of today, none of them
had appeared. So here are the frustrations I've got:
I'm running Windows 7 on a PC, BTW.
1. Where can I see what is being uploaded? I can click on the little cloud in my tray, and it says, "uploading 1.8mb of 1.00 gb" and it's said that for a long time. I read on these forums to delete the next file in the queue and see if that fixes it. I
don't see how I can even look at that list, much less control it.
2. I found the advice "Did you uninstall and reinstall the Skydrive app?" Sorry, but that did not seem to me to be the logical thing to do, since I just installed it 2 days ago, I figured I had the latest one. Surprisingly, though, this worked, apparently.
3. But this whole system is not nearly as plug and play as the average user would like apparently.
