I won’t give you the direct download links (they’re in the first paragraph of the above referenced page) but I can walk you through the install and show you how it works! Let’s do it… INSTALLING GOOGLE DRIVE FOR DESKTOP MAC Available for both Mac and Windows, it’s not yet an official release, so you’ll have to go to the Google Drive blog and grab the latest build from this page: Sync content across all devices with Drive for desktop. That’s why it’s good to know that Google has a third gen solution to the problem and it’s in what appears to be late beta: Drive for Desktop.
The most recent program was Backup and Sync, but it certainly doesn’t fit the bill for “simple, seamless” in the way the other services have done on desktop systems. Apple does it with iCloud, DropBox does it, plenty of cloud storage services have this feature, but Google Drive? So far, the company’s released a couple of different programs, none of which quite delivered what users wanted. Ya have to give ’em credit, Google keeps trying to figure out how to have Google Drive show up on your computer as just another drive.
