First, I really like Windows 8. Everything I have seen and read make me like it even more. Up until now, I have been managing my data manually. Use “Program X” to synchronize two folders… use “Program Y” to sync to Skydrive. Now, from what I’ve been reading, Windows 8 will do it all on its own. IF I set it up correctly. Keep in mind that I am coming from XP so I am slightly unfamiliar with the new features from 7. I may be missing simple tricks that came about with 7. I have a Live account. (SkydriveA) My wife has a Live account. (SkydriveB) My son has a Live account. (SkydriveC) We all have our separate logins for Windows 8. All of our Skydrives work nicely in Explorer. I have two folders, each on a separate internal partition on separate physical drives, with mirrored folders for pictures. (PicturesA and PicturesB) I want Windows to mirror these folders for me. So that any change to one is caught in the other. In the event of one of my drives dyeing, I will have the other drive with the identical data. I have read a little about the Storage Spaces. But it looks like using that will erase all of my existing data. I also read a little about using Mirrored Volumes. Is there a downside to this? What would be the best way for me to do this? Now that I have two folders syncing each other… I want Skydrive to sync the data in those folders. Can I get Skydrive to sync to a mirrored volume? Will a junction link to a mirrored volume? What if I want both mine and my wife’s Skydrive to sync to the same folder? Can I create a junction to two separate locations? And for my son’s Skydrive, he wants his music files to sync. But we all want to access the files from our respective local accounts on the computer. Does Skydrive sync to a folder while another user is logged in and working on the folder? I know this is a confusing post but hopefully someone knows what I am talking about. Sorry.

I assume it is CCLeaner. I don't use anything else to mess with the reg. I'm not trying to give CCleaner a bad name, I assume it is working as it should. I associate say paint.net to .jpeg files and theKMplayer to avi files. It three or four days the associations are gone and the avi and jpeg icons are the default blank ones. No big deal. I just want to stick the associations.

That sounds cool g-force. Thanks, I'll look into that. -x- how do I set the permissions? in CCLeaner or in regedit?

I like to put portable software on my computer. I have a seperate partition of only portable software. I don't know why, I just think it is nice to copy a piece of software when I need it to go fix my mom's computer, or go to a friend's house, or whatever. I like when software writes nothing to the registry. BUT I want to associate a few programs (Paint.net to jpegs) and add a few context menu entries (Folder2ISO for a directory). But every time I do, I inevitably run CCleaner and don't pay attention and lose the registry entries. Is there a way to make them stick? Am I an id*** for even asking if I can make registry entries for a portable application?

I have the free version of Returnil 2.0.1.9002. I think that is the latest. Anyway, I just want to do an unattended install. Does anyone have any ideas? I have never tried autoit. I may have to start. I did some looking into repackaging but I can't get into the installer. I noticed that I may be the only one on the web looking to do this with Returnil. I like the program and use it often. I like to mess with stuff and often break my computer but with Returnil all I need to do to fix it is restart. Is everyone else using a different program?
