Improved SkyDrive storage service on Windows 8.1 makes it easier to use
Microsoft recently announced the addition of a feature that allows SkyDrive users on Windows 8.1 to access offline data (Offline - without an Internet connection).
With this feature, users of SkyDrive on Windows 8.1 can access the files they store in many different devices (installed SkyDriv e application) without having an Internet connection as before.
To activate the feature, select the file you want to use Offline, then click on the "make offline" button that appears in the menu bar below.
When introducing Windows 8.1, Microsoft showed that they also added many new features to SkyDrive, compared to Windows 8.
By default, Windows will not download all data from SkyDrive to device memory, but only download small pieces of data, saving you more time and saving storage space on mobile devices. After you start opening the file, the new file is downloaded to the device.
