With the advent of Windows Live Wave 4, we found that installing it entails the removal of Live Mesh in favor of Windows Live Sync but it offers only 2GB of storage cons 5GB for Live Mesh and other changes I'll try to go around in this article.
Live Sync uses the technology of Live Mesh P2P synchronization, the main advantage that I was at Live Mesh was its online storage to share files between two computers even if they were not connected to the web simultaneously, something that remained in sync with Live storage space smaller.
In this beta version lacks a number of features but that should be provided in a later version as the non-support for mobile devices (Windows Phone / Mobile), the inability to purchase additional storage space at the Sync Live Skydrive dedicated to (the one with 2GB), failure to make a folder synchronized with a single click (blue Live Mesh folders) despite the cuts there is always the possibility of taking control of a remote PC linked to the account now with new zoom feature but also to synchronize programs Internet Explorer (favorites) and Office (models, electronic signatures and styles).
Besides the differences compared to Live Mesh, Live Sync makes some significant improvements, the maximum size file that can be stored up to 2 GB and the maximum size per file but in this case, those that are exchanged directly between two PCs up 40 Gb per file, the exchange is still based on the P2P system except that it requires that both computers are turned on in this case.
The reason for the removal of Live Mesh sync for the benefit of Live would be at the level of users who confuse the two synchronization services over Live Sync is integrated with Windows Live which gives it a higher profile.
The web interface of Live Sync allows remote viewing of the remaining space on each partition of a computer connected to Live Devices, feature phones do for now is nothing for France because the SMS is not activated.
Windows Live Sync is located in the Windows Live services under the start menu as Windows Live beta Devices
