That seems madness. Why not just copy to a temp dir before synching?


Oh well, from now on I will make sure Skydrive is disabled.
Still weird though that these three files are totally unusable even after rebooting.
Also, I have been using Skydrive for a few years now and never encountered problems like these before.
