Here's an interesting anomaly I've just noticed, and I'd like to know if anyone else has experienced this behavior:

If I launch Word, create a new document, and save it directly to my SkyDrive folder, the SkyDrive application will not notice the new file unless I quickly close the document after saving it, then quit Word. If the document lingers open even for a few seconds, SkyDrive won't notice the file. It's as if some background file system process is hiding/locking access to the file by SkyDrive.

(Yes, I've already uninstalled then re-installed SkyDrive, unlinked and relinked my Outlook.com account, and everything else Microsoft reps on their support forum will suggest I do. Dragging and dropping files to the SkyDrive folder works as normal.)

Any thoughts/similar experiences?
