Share Google Drive files for everyone to see

Sharing a Google Drive file for everyone to see means that you’ll get a link that anyone who opens it can see, but doesn’t have permission to edit.

You right-click the file or folder you want to share, and then select Get a shared link.

Share a Google Drive file that grants editing permissions to someone

Sharing a Google Drive file grants editing permission to someone, which means you’ll allow some of the people you have their Gmail to view and edit it or files in a folder if you share a folder.

You right-click the file or folder you want to share on Google Drive, and then choose Share.

Enter the shared recipient’s Gmail address, and then select the level of access that Can be sorted, added, and edited. Then you click the Send button and the person will receive a google drive file sharing notification from you.

How to Add to My Google Drive (add to my drive)

Around April 2020, many of you had problems adding to my Google Drive ( add to my drive) lost. Makes syncing on your computer not work the same as before, but only creates a link shortcut. This is how Nguyen Tien has contributed to us.

You go to “shared with me” as usual, click to select the folder or file to move to Drive and then click the key combination “SHIFT + Z” then there will be a small window appearing to add to the drive as before.

Resought deleted files on Google Drive

If you delete a file or folder on Google Drive, don’t worry, they’re still in the Junk Valley. When you right-click, you can restore deleted files or permanently delete them on Google Drive.

Sync Google Drive on your computer & phone

The indispensable feature of cloud storage utilities like Google Drive is file syncing between devices and on the web. If necessary, download and explore. Industries such as designers or people working on 2 computers are suitable for this feature.

Get Google Drive on your computer

Just down the left corner of the Google Drive page there is a small banner calling for Google Drive to be downloaded for the computer. You click there to download and install, please log in to your gmail address correctly.

On your computer you will appear a folder called Google Drive, and when you put a file in it, that file will be automatically uploaded to Google Drive. And vice versa, when you upload to a Google Drive page, the file also downloads itself in the Google Drive folder on your computer.

I think it’s beneficial, but it bothers me. Depending on the purpose, you should consider using Google Drive sync on your device.

Get Google Drive on your phone

Google Drive on your phone will not synchronize the download style like a computer, but only for your convenience. To get Google Drive on your phone, just open the app store and find Google Drive. Or you can load quickly by clicking the button below.

Check and buy more Google Drive storage

Google gives you 15GB of space to store data by default. Note that 15GB for all services including Gmail and other spirit is always available, not just Google Drive.

Take a look at the lower left corner to check your Google account space. If you want to buy more, click Buy storage.
