    Hi Steph60148

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Have you downloaded and installed the Google Drive App on your PC?

    https://www.google.com/drive/download/

    Once that is downloaded, you can set up what folders you want to sync automatically, and Google Drive will appear in the left pane of File Explorer.

    Hi Dave,

    Thank you for your support.

    i did download the Google drive app.

    i don't see it in the file explorer though.

    I don't have anything yet to sync automatically. i just wanted it there as an option for when i do want to save something to it.

    thank you

    Stephanie

    Hi Stephanie

    Check in the Google Drive App for a setting to add that to Explorer as a location.
