Google has a new and better way to access Google Drive files from your computer. Use Drive File Stream to access all of your Drive files from your computer. With Drive File Stream, you can quickly see your Google Drive files in the File Explorer, just like you would access files on a network drive. Previously you could download Drive for Mac or PC and select which files to sync to your computer. The downside to this tool was syncing files took up space on your hard drive and would not allow you to sync Team Drives. Now you can browse, organize, and access Google Drive files without downloading all of them to your computer. Moreover, Drive File Stream shows both My Drive and Team Drives. Although Docs, Slides, Sheets, and Forms will still open in your browser such as Google Chrome, Drive File Steam makes it easier to save files from other applications such as Word directly to Drive. For example you can create a new Word document and select File > Save As > Browse > Google Drive File Stream (pictured below). Access your Google Drive files easier and faster by downloading Drive File Stream today. Use the link below to get directions or stop by the CETL with your laptop during open lab for assistance setting up Drive File Stream.
