I am running Windows 8.1 and I recently I noticed that upon clicking the documents folder under SkyDrive in  File Explorer I cannot view any folders or files, only the vertical and horizontal scroll bars flash, along with the selectors for viewing a list or thumbnails at the bottom right of the window. The strange thing is, if I click the arrow next to the document folder under SkyDrive in File Explorer it shows me a list of all folders on SkyDrive, but not any single documents. I tested to see if placing all my single documents into a folder of any name would work, and it did! I was then able to select the document folder and view all of my folders on SkyDrive in the explorer window. Then I decided to make a new document folder on SkyDrive and moving all my current folders and single documents to this new folder, it did not work, I had the same problem. It seems the only way to see my documents this way is to make sure all of my documents are in folders. What is really strange is that if I place my SkyDrive documents folder into the documents library I can view both folders and all of my single documents without a problem.

This looks like a bug in the built in SkyDrive in Windows 8.1 If anyone knows a fix for this please let me know, as this is very frustrating.
