The deeper integration with SkyDrive is truly beneficial, but my laptop has a somewhat small primary drive (an 128 Gb MSATA SSD), and when possible, i try to move installations and other folders(like Documents and Downloads) to the secondary, 1 Tb drive.
But i couldn't find any option to change the SkyDrive folder (it used to be in the secondary drive prior to the upgrade).
Anyone have some idea how to change it?
Thanks in advance!
Edit 1: I've looked for an option to change this folder, to no avail. Really, it could only be a problem if i choose the option to keep my files offline, but it is exactly the option that i was looking for.
Edit 2: Trying to install the old desktop app, the installer just quits silently.
Edit 3: This question was asked during the Windows 8.1 Preview, when there wasn't such option. Now Microsoft treated the Skydrive folder like the Documents folder, solving the problem completely. I've reassigned the correct answer.
Answer
In Windows 8.1 RTM this is possible
In the default This PC view, right-click on SkyDrive in the navigation pane and select Properties.
Navigate to the Location tab. To change the location where SkyDrive syncs its files, simply click the Move button and choose a new location.
