If you've downloaded the SkyDrive desktop app, you can add a 'send to SkyDrive' button in the right-click context menu for quick and easy syncing.

Click Start and copy/paste %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo and press enter (this will open the SendTo folder)

(Optional) Hold Shift + Right click on the SkyDrive folder in Explorer and select 'Copy as path' which will copy the SkyDrive directory to the clipboard

In the SendTo folder, right-click...New....Shortcut

For the location, if you did the second step, then paste; otherwise navigate to the SkyDrive directory.

Give it a name (e.g. 'SkyDrive')

An alternate way of creating the shortcut is to open the relevant SkyDrive folder in another Explorer window and hold CTRL + Shift whilst dragging the folder across to the SendTo directory. Then rename the shortcut file to whatever you like.

Hope that's useful :)
