Windows Live Sync RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have been using Mesh for years and I loved it.  I have switched over to Windows Live Sync Beta and I am trying hard to give it a chance, but I find it utterly frustrating and confusing.  It is nearly impossible to figure out what folders you are syncing and where they are syncing.  The things I miss about the Mesh are I could right-click a folder and add it to the mesh.  Then the icon changed so I could instantly see what was being sync'ed.  I really want to like Sync.  I just want it to be more intuitive. 

    Thanks.

  • There is no Windows Live Sync Beta, unless you have not yet updated to the final release version. I agree that the options available to us in Windows Live Mesh are rather simplistic compared to what exists in Live Mesh beta, which will go away come 3/31/11. Hopefully we will see some of the functionality restored in the future.

    For discussion of the new Windows Live Mesh (formerly Sync), (as well as the released Live Sync version) go here:
