On Windows, it is an easy process to set up your Google Drive as a folder in your File Explorer.
To do this, you first need to download Google Drive for Desktop from Google at:
https://www.google.com/drive/download/
After the .exe file has finished downloading, open the Downloads folder and open it.
Once the file is open, the installation process should start. If you see a user account control prompt saying that it needs access to your computer, press Alt+Y for Yes.
This process should take you through signing in to your Google account. You will need to click “Allow” on the permissions screen. Once setup is completed, go to the Devices and Drives section in File Explorer to find your Google Drive.
