** - You will not be able to modify, delete or rename files and folders in the guest mode.

* - Note the following restrictions when working with mapped folders:

  • SDExplorer does not mount your SkyDrive account in its entirety: each root folder is mounted as a separate disk.
  • SDExplorer supports mounting only SkyDrive folders whose contents type is "Documents"
  • Large files (over 50 MB) are not supported within the mapped drive.
  • Working with mounted disks is not fast.
  • On some PCs with Windows XP installed, files are not copied correctly from the mounted drive.
  • Some characters in filenames are converted by Microsoft's servers internally. For example, _ tranforms to ^_, & to ^0, ( to ^5, etc. You need to take it into account when you plan to use mapped drive for backup.

The most worthwhile option is to use such a mapped disk with third-party programs for data synchronization and backup utilities in background mode. For full-fledged use of the SkyDrive service, we recommend using the standard SDExplorer mechanism. We reserve the right to refuse refunds if the reason given is among those found in the list above.
