Force a SkyDrive sync

Using a symbolic link to add an unmoveable folder to SkyDrive means that changes in the source folder will not be automatically synchronized. This batch file will create a new folder in your SkyDrive folder. By doing so, it forces SkyDrive to scan your local SkyDrive folder for changes and update your files on the web.
