I haven't yet since I'm waiting for the RTM, but here's a link to a workaround:

Heard that feature wont be back till this fall, something about they are working on it. Too many people were too dumb to figure out what files were on there system and what ones were just one onedrive. It's a feature I greatly miss myself. I created a link, to the site, on my start menu to get around it for now.

Good idea, I think I'll do that as well!
I wish I had a Windows 7 pro key instead of all home keys...
oh, that feature will return? i thought it was gone forever so they could be "more like Dropbox" or something dum like that. then I will upgrade to 10 this fall

I will definitely upgrade to 10. I actually didn't have any issues with 8.1 at all and I've been using Windows since 98. But there are too many features in 10 that I like...so I'm diving headfirst.
I use the pen on my SP3 heavily and really loike being able to write on web pages

Normally I can't wait to upgrade to the latest but this time I'm sadly sitting on the sidelines. I need to see a good video or something of someone actually using the SP3 in tablet mode to convince me. I spend about 1/2 time in tablet and 1/2 time on the dock in desktop mode and 8.1 works perfect for that. I also need to be convinced that none of my apps will break on 10 so there's that too. I do too much real work on my SP3 both real work and pleasure to risk messing anything up.

That's what the slow ring is for. If it runs on 8.1 it will run on release 10130 which is where the slow ring is now.

Just go the safe/easy route and see for yourself- go download and install the free version of Macrium Reflect, and make a disk image of your existing 8.1 install, as-is.
Then do what Leeshor said and get on the slow ring (or fast ring- the latest 2 builds are very stable and polished) and try it out. If you don't like it, no harm no foul, just restore to your Macrium image and call it a day.
Seriously, Genchi Genbutsu.
