Hello. I've upgraded last week to Windows 8.1 from 8 (subscription) and SkyDrive is unable to properly sync and download all my files I've uploaded.
Before upgrading to 8.1 I used the SkyDrive desktop app to keep my files synced and it worked perfectly. I uninstalled the SkyDrive desktop app, then I upgraded to 8.1 and noticed that the "SkyDrive Sync Engine Host" process was using about 35% of my CPU, 1MB/s of my disk and network (my laptop was heating up). After 8 hours the "SkyDrive Sync Engine Host" process kept running using 40% of my CPU but using only 0.1MB/s of my disk and no network. I noticed that all my files I have uploaded to SkyDrive weren't in the SkyDrive folder.
I decided to install Windows 8.1 from scratch but this problem kept and keeps happening. Ending the process through the Task Manager, erasing the files in C:\Users\%USER%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\SkyDrive and restarting doesn't make any difference.
The "Access all files offline" setting of the SkyDrive app is turned off, and it doesn't make any difference if I turn it on.
If I upload a new file through skydrive.com it won't be downloaded or synced to my SkyDrive folder. (Maybe the integrated SkyDrive is only downloading files that were created until a certain date.)
When I open the SkyDrive app it only shows me that is loading something (group of dots at the top).
I've already installed all the updates including the ones from today's 8.1 launch.
If I open and edit a file inside the SkyDrive folder, the changes made are not present on skydrive.com
I hope you could help me with this, thank you.
