MICROSOFT WINDOWS 8 FEATURES

SkyDrive

Save your files to the cloud with no effort, and get to your files from nearly anywhere. Start a document on one PC and finish it on another. Always have the latest version of your files with you from your PC, Mac, tablet, or smartphone. Use free Office Web Apps to edit documents on SkyDrive even if you don't have Office installed.

Your Microsoft account

Your Microsoft account (which is the email address and password you also use to sign in to Outlook.com, SkyDrive, Xbox, Windows Phone, or other Microsoftproducts) is your key to unlocking the full potential of Windows 8. Sign in to your PC with your Microsoft account and you get access to the Windows Store for apps, free online storage with SkyDrive, and streaming music with the Xbox Music app.

Settings that go with you

You can sign in on up to five different PCs and immediately see the things that make Windows yours: your Start screen, as well as your settings and lock screen. You can easily move stuff around on Start, too. For example, you could set up your work PC one way and your home PC another way.

Multiple users on a single PC

Keep 'em separated: Each member of your family who signs in on a single PC gets a personalized experience, with their own Start screen, files, and apps.
