How do I delete Sky Drive from my computer?
Don't know if I am too late asking this.  Obviously the first person didn't find your answer helpful.
I just got laptop with Windows 8 and loaded free 8.1 update.  Had not used Sky Drive.
 
Today while working with photo files was interrupted by (what I thought was a routine) Microsoft update so I clicked ok.  Did not realize it was for Sky Drive till it started downloading. Should have clicked cancel!  I do not intend to pay for Sky Drive after the 30 day trial in any case.  
 
Now, when I try to access my folders/files in pictures there is a several second delay before they open.  Worse--the folders come up as "empty" until it is filled, presumably from the cloud.  I could accidentally delete an "empty" folder. 
 
I am a very low tech user.  I back up my photo files on an external hard drive and various USB ports.  I feel that you tricked me into using the Sky Drive and I want my photos back on my hard drive!  How do I do this?
 
Note: I have split your post from this thread since your concern needs to be addressed separately.
In an effort to upload and edit products photos to put on my etsy,site, I have installed 3 programs,
Adobe Photo Express, Aviary Photo Editing and Sky Drive,  Now I have edited and unedited photos
in several sites, It is time consuming and confusing for me to find photos. edit and save.  I want to 
delete photos that have been put on these other sites.  How do I get all photos on Sky Drive, delete
them from other sites, edit and store on Sky Drive.?  My goal is to have all my product photos on
one site where I can edit, save, and upload  to my etsy listing.  Can you tell me how to clean up
this mess I have created on my new laptop?

I have to give up my internet and will have to go the library to use a public computer.  I have files that I've saved on my sky drive to work wherever I am.  Can I save these to a zip drive so I can access them at home until I can afford the internet again?
Hi There,

This morning when I checked my sky drive,  found most of my uploaded files were gone! Could you please let me know what's happening? Usually I use sky drive to backup my files, now I'm wondering whether it's a good idea. Thanks for your help.


I can't use my mouse on my desktop computer after installing sky drive for my nooktablet on it...how do I reverse that download with no way to move my mouse or navigate?
