Hi,

I have just upgraded to Win 8.1 on my surface pro.

Previously I had Win8 SkyDrive set to sync to a folder in a mount point on my SDXC card - so this now has around 10Gb of data sat on my flash card.

After upgrading to 8.1, I now have "Smart Files" located in a new SkyDrive folder in my user directory (Surface pro internal drive) and SkyDrive knows nothing about the duplicate "real" files on the mounted SD card.


My question is - If I "Move" the location of the "Smart" win8.1 SkyDrive folder to the same location as the currently real files on the mount point - what will SkyDrive do? 1. Delete all the real files; 2. merge the changes and understand the real files are the same as the smart files; 3. create duplicates of everything and overfill my SkyDrive allocation; 4. crash and never work again.


I am hoping that option 2 will prevail - does anyone know?


Oh - and the reason I want to do this is so that I can just dump photos in the SkyDrive mount folder and have them automatically upload to SkyDrive in bulk.


Cheers
