Use Google Drive for desktop

To easily manage and share content across all of your devices and the cloud, use Google's desktop sync client: Drive for desktop.

If you edit, delete or move a file on the Cloud, the same change happens on your computer and devices, and vice versa. In this way, your files are always up to date and can be accessed from any device.

You can use Drive for desktop to:

• Open files stored on the Cloud directly on your computer.
• Find and organize your files in your computer’s file system without using storage space.
• Sync folders from your computer to Google Drive.
  • When you sync, your files download from the cloud and upload from your computer’s hard drive.
  • After you sync, your computer's files match those in the cloud.
  • Your files stay up to date and accessible, any change you make applies across devices.
• Save files and folders for offline use. This includes files from shared drives.
• Collaborate on Microsoft Office files in real time.
