Ms Word creates ..Document folder in Skydrive.

[Hewjr100]

Hi, I am new to this forum, but not forums in general. Windows/Linux users since Windows 1.0, and Slackware since day 1.



I have just a few simple questions:

1. Using Ms Office Home premium 2013 trial version and when running Ms Word it creates a folder called ..Documents in Skydrive, even though I have a Documents folder already.

2. Why the upload center? When I create a document, I prefer to save it straight to my documents folder in Skydrive folder on the hard drive, so it is already being uploaded/synced already. Actually all my files are stored in Skydrive folder, I no longer use the libraries, whats the point, you end up with duplicate folders and files.

3. Why isn't each module of office not available as an individual subscription. Basically I am a home user who only needs Ms Word, so in essence I would be paying $9.99 a month for Ms Word only. Given the new rapid update/upgrade process, it would not be prudent to purchase Ms word on dvd. Better to have it web based, and always current, and maybe cheaper, like $4.99 a month.

Of course # 3 is wishful thinking.
