After upgrading from 'Windows 8 Pro' to 'Windows 8.1 Pro Preview', the SkyDrive folder has acquired a red cross on my laptop and doesn't sync. Earlier, on Windows 8, my SkyDrive folder was on E: and not on System Drive C:. Now,  the default folder is C:\Users\User-name\SkyDrive with a red cross stuck on it, where I had to compulsorily move all contents of my old SkyDrive folder.


Further, when I visit website https://skydrive.live.com/#cid=.............. and click on PC > Computer-name, a message reading "Sorry, but SkyDrive Can't Connect to "Computer-name"" is encountered, though I am acting from the same computer, which obviously is on and connected to internet. However, it is not possible to access the SkyDrive Settings tab, where as earlier, under General, I can select Let me use SkyDrive to fetch any of my files on this PC, if it is not done at the time of installation.


Any solution to this problem of new incarnation of SkyDrive, which appears more handicapped than equipped, as claimed ?

When transferring mails from INBOX to Subfolder "Guenters" , the effect is, as if I would have clicked "DELETE".
The mail disappears from INBOX, and the Subfolder remains EMPTY .
I can't connect to my Microsoft account. Error code 0x80048264
Is there any way I can check the date I originally registered my account on Hotmail/Live/Outlook? I've searched the forums, and the only helpful thread I could find seems to indicate that I need to PM a moderator for this information, but I'm kind of confused.

Thanks
Both of my hotmail accounts were linked and accessed by the same password, since the upgrade to Outlook I can't access my secondary email account.  Why is that?

Tried to edit my contacts list.  Can find people but have only 2 entries, people that I have never contacted.  Read the answers but can't "clear cheshes", "open - - ".  and "----".
