Repetitive sync I have loaded my photos onto skydrive and now it is constantly syncing and tying up my computer-I have noticed that when skydrive is syncing my internet is MUCH slower... does it really need to sync constantly.. the icon says that it is syncing 31 GB of data. How can I change the settings so that it does not need to sync all of the time

Hi Kristen,

It sounds as if SkyDrive is running at startup everytime you log onto your PC. What you can do, if on Windows 7, is click start, then type msconfig, you will then be presented with new window. Click the startup tab and ensure that SkyDrive is not enabled to start when system starts. If using windows 8, you can right click on the task bar, choose task manager, then click the startup tab and check the items there. Please visit my website at fix-my-computer.wix.com/computerservices if you need any additional assistance.

I hope this helps and good luck!
