Hi,

I was wondering how to map skydrive as a network drive in windows 8.

I looked on the internet and found results for windows 7 - I don't know if these will work in windows 8.


Please help!

You can also login to https://skydrive.live.com and go to Get Apps
Download and install the Desktop App.

It should create a location similar to this C:\Users\8\SkyDrive
You should be able to map that without issue.


Hey Brink, I tried that WebDAV tool, and when I login, it says I have zero stuff out there
Looks like that is a know issue according to many of the posts out there.
