I hope no one has missed the message from the Windows Live Mesh and SkyDrive Teams announcing the retirement of Mesh earlier this month.
With the retirement of Mesh the following changes are taking place:
- Remote desktop and peer-to-peer sync are no longer be available.
- Any data on the Mesh cloud (Mesh synced storage or SkyDrive synced storage) will be permanently deleted on August 13, 2013. (Mesh users go here (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/skydrive/mesh-users) to access your Mesh online storage.)
- Synced folders have stopped syncing.
- You are no longer able to connect to your PCs remotely using Mesh.
Get SkyDrive Whether you are a former Windows Live Mesh user or just never tried SkyDrive, you will discover that it is very easy to set up. SkyDrive works on Windows 8, Windows 7, or Vista, and Mac OS X Lion computers.
The simple installation is illustrated in my blog post Moving to SkyDrive (http://securitygarden.blogspot.com/2013/02/moviing-to-skydrive.html).
