I went to that link, but the procedure doesn't work for me at all. First there is no OneDrive icon, still SkyDrive on Windows as far as I can tell, and right clicking on the icon that is there has no 'settings' as a menu selection.

Possibly this only works on OneDrive for business??

Aha, doesn't work right on Windows 8.1 :(

It works on Windows 7 or earlier machines running the OneDrive Win32 Client...

"You can use a PC running Windows 8.1 to fetch files that are on another PC, but you can't fetch files that are on a PC running Windows 8.1, even if you install the OneDrive desktop app on that PC."
