I recently tried out the W10 preview and went back to W8.1. All is installed and is working, but it is a virgin install.

Assume I'm completely baffled because it is true!!

I want to sync my desktop screen/modern apps with the SP1 but cannot figure out how to make that happen. I also want IE11 modern ui to see the tabs on my desktop machine.

None of this is happening right now, and reading about 'one drive sync' is giving me headaches as they run around in circles discussing it.

I noticed that when I installed W10 and when I brought up my HP desktop the first time, that I was asked if it was a 'new' install or use a previous computer for reference. That didn't happen on the SP1 when I reset everything back to W8. Is that because W8 didn't offer that as a choice?
