I use Skydrive to synchronize my Adobe Lightroom catalog and all of my working pictures between two computers.  This works great so long as I wait for the two PC's to finish uploading and downloading with Skydrive. 


I use almost 100 GB of Skydrive storage, and on my Win 7 box it will take a long time for Skydrive to simply check the status of the Skydrive folder before it starts syncing, but I could check on the app in the systray periodically to check to see if when it's started and when it's finished syncing.


I just finished upgrading to Win 8.1 from Win 8 on my second PC, and I cannot find anyway to check on whether or not the sync is complete.


Case in point, I created a new folder on the Win 7 box with a couple of files.  That synced to the Skydrive cloud storage location successfully, but after a couple of hours that folder is still not visible in the Skydrive folders on the Win 8.1 box.  I assume that the Win 8.1 box is still syncing with my Skydrive cloud folder, but I cannot find any way to confirm that.


What am I missing?
