Thanks for the report. Have you set up the desktop client, opened it and restarted Files from the system tray? |

We don't support Google Drive mounting as a folder instead of a dedicate drive currently. @Josh65-2201 To detect the mounting point of Google Drive properly, we need to inspect the value of Marking it as a good first issue as the fix should be trivial:

Hello, I would like to try to work on this if that is okay. I think I found the place in the source code where I would need to make changes, and I plan to start working on it tomorrow. I am aware of the contributing guidelines and will follow them. |

Thank you! Please reach out if you have any questions. |
Files.App.Utils.Cloud.GoogleDriveCloudDetector.GetProviders() currently does, and what we want it to do. In Files.App.Utils.Cloud.GoogleDriveCloudDetector.GetProviders(), first we get a Sqlite database file at the following path: "$($env:localappdata)/Google/DriveFS/root_preference_sqlite.db" Then we copy that database to a temporary folder. Then we run the following SQL queries against the copy: SELECT * FROM roots SELECT * FROM media WHERE fs_type=10 Then we traverse the ITEMs in each of the two response sets and create a new GoogleDrive-type CloudProvider for each ITEM, with the CloudProvider.SyncFolder property set to a (formatted) part of each ITEM's contents. So far, in this scratch repo, I have confirmed that when Google Drive is mounted as a folder, this Sqlite method for getting the mount paths DOESN'T work. "When Google Drive is mounted as a folder" means when you have the "Google Drive streaming location" setting set to "Folder" in Google Drive Preferences. I have also confirmed that when Google Drive is mounted as a folder, the registry method for getting the mount paths ( described here: files-community/Files#15698 (comment) ) DOES work. Next I will test the behavior of each method when Google Drive is mounted as a dedicated drive.

No problem! I made some progress on exploring the problem today (see the notification above about the commit I just made in a scratch repo that references this issue), and I'm hoping to submit a pull request sometime this weekend. |
