Disabling it all together in the registry has done the trick for me. Ok, if after process 8. Just to update after lauding syncdriver I encountered various problems with it stalling during the syncing process.
The long and short of it been I have reverted to my Microsoft account Win 8. When turned on, it will not sync all my picture folders or any of my documents. I prefer a online storage for syncing files. I first turned off my SkyDrive in the Win8. A few pics were still being synced.
So I searched through Bing and found this website article and I changed the SkyDrive registry and that had a weird reverse effect. When I changed the value of DisableFileSync to 1 and restarted my PC, SkyDrive synced all my picture folders and documents and it was the first time ever being able to do that.

Please read my complete post. Thanks anyway. In reply to WinOp's post on March 21, After Linux desktop loads, try to find the Win8 filesystem. If the Windows partition doesnt appear on your desktop, try opening any sorta file manager and looking on sidebar. If nothing is there, try rebooting again into Linux.
If its still not there, mount it using traditional methods. All modern linux has NTFS support but sometimes windows locks the partition on first reboot or makes it tedious to mount auto. If nothing else works, reboot and keep hitting f2 or delete to get into your bios. Turn off SecureBoot, make boot legacy compatible, then choose legacy first. Set your boot order to your chosen Alt as first in line.
Add them to a zip file, and copy them into the windows drive, somewhere nice like your desktop. This is your backup of the skydrive files in case SHTF. You have it Linux side and Win side. Note: if you are running Live Linux, the file will not be saved Frequently check system32 after updates to make sure MS doesnt sneak it back in. If they do, boot your Alt and delete them.
Go onto MS forums and support portal and unleash your anger that they would force you to run this ridiculous service. Its a security risk to have yet another constant pinging service If you run into stuff, please share here so others may develop a tactic to remove it. Get the trial of Revo Uninstaller and do a "forced uninstall" - it will use the uninstaller first then go back through the registry and folders for leftovers - there will be many.
