OneDrive "only" folders on Windows Phone 8 vs OneDrive online.

Hi tribexx,

Thanks for following up with detailed steps.

After the "Saved pictures from SkyDrive" gets generated, you can find them from the OneDrive.

• Launch OneDrive from app list
• You will find the "Saved Pictures" from "files pivot" (root level) and/or under "Pictures" folder
• Tap into "Saved Pictures" from OneDrive app, you can (multiple) delete files or perform other operations from there. For multiple delete
  • Tap on "select"
  • Multiple selection of files you want to delete
  • Tap on delete
  • And confirm
  
  You can also try to use the "search" from app bar (at the bottom of screen) to search "Saved pictures". If you still cannot find the "Saved pictures", please let us know.
  
  Thank you.

Utilities that I run can no longer automatically save files to my OneDrive
