The SkyDrive on Windows Lives comes with four default
folders: My Documents, Favorites, Shared Favorites, and Public. The My
Documents and Public folders store documents, while the Favorites and
Shared Favorites folders store links to Web sites. The My Documents and
Favorites folders are private for your eyes only, while the Shared
Favorites and Public folders are viewable by everyone in your Windows
Live network. If you want to share your documents with others, then add
or move them to the Public folder. Instead of using the default folders,
you can create and use your own and then specify permissions for
access. If you no longer need a folder, you can delete it. You cannot
rename a default folder, however, you can rename the ones you create.
