G Drive File Explorer
Glendora Starr
Hey there, I was looking for the same thing because I was unable to find the OneDrive for my business account too. I believe the solution you are looking for is in the following link:
Sync files with OneDrive in Windows (microsoft.com)
If you get a error telling you that OneDrive is already installed. Even better. Because that means you only need to add the Microsoft365 or Office365 account.
To add the account to the existing OneDrive installation hover your mouse over the taskbar.
Step 1. Click the OneDrive icon next to the clock.
Step 2. Click "Help & Settings" and click "Settings" from the drop-down menu
Step 3. Microsoft One Drive properties pop up will appear. Click Add account.
The OneDrive icon for the second account will appear on the taskbar next to the personal OneDrive icon.
I hope this helps you and resolves your issue @Pepijn van Beusekom
Had the same issue. Hit Start, type OneDrive, open "OneDrive App" - looks the same as a file explorer, except in the address bar you now see "Syncing". Left click "Syncing" and you'll see a pop up with a gear icon bottom right. Select that for Settings, go to the second menu item on the left column, "Account" and hit "+ Add an account" (top right of screen.)
There are two identified workarounds for this -
1.) using the browser to upload files to google drive works fine; but is not desirable in some cases because this can take a lot longer to find the appropriate destination locations.
and 2.) I demonstrated was to restart the windows explorer process using windows task manager. This appears to allow the google drive for desktop to properly communicate one more time with the google cloud.
We also generated diagnostics to report to google - I noted that google has been updating the drive app every couple of weeks with bug fixes and so called enhancements; implying that there are stability problems with the google drive for desktop app currently.
I'm going to venture a guess that you're running the command prompt as another user or as "Administrator" and you have UAC enabled. When this happens, you've mapped the drive under a different user context than the one your Explorer window is running in. Launch a command prompt without doing Run As Administrator or Run As a Different User and you should be fine.
Turn on Network Discovery. This can be done by opening "Network and Sharing Center", then click "Change advanced sharing settings", then select the radio button for "Turn on Network Discovery" under the appropriate profile.
Also you can try to modify the registry: in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System create a DWORD entry named EnableLinkedConnections with a value of 1. Reboot the computer. Network drives mapped by the same user, even under different security contexts, will appear to programs running as that user.
if there is at the very least a way to repair this (which I largely doubt) or a method to at least get something to recognize the drive so I can get my data so I can thus put this external rightfully in the trash where it belongs would be pleasant.
This CMD command would erase all data on the uninitialized hard drive, which you can later restore after repairing the external hard drive not initialized, with the help of any data recovery or partition recovery software:
In case you wish to recover data from the drive you need help of a reliable data recovery software. Here, I suggest to try Free Stellar Data Recovery Software to run a scan & see the results. The free version of the software also enables you recover 1 GB data free.
Click the Quick access button (the blue star) at the top. In the right pane or the folder view, select the FTP link, press CTRL and select another item that you want to Unpin. Multi-selecting items (FTP & a normal pinned folder) and right-clicking would show the context menu options correctly. Click Unpin from Quick access. For instance, you can Pin a test folder to Quick access, and then remove the FTP and test folder both together.
On Windows 10, click on the icon Quick access (blue star), then right click on the dead link appearing in the "Frequent folders" panel on the right panel and choose "Unpin/Remove from Quick access". There should be no error message.
I was having trouble getting my File Explorer in Windows 10 from even coming up, I had a lot of items pinned on it to a network share that was no longer available. As far as I know it was never going to come back after many minutes, locked up - spinning thingy.
Now you can navigate to drive C or other drives or network shares. But I still needed to unpin the items that were in the Quick Access, or wouldn't be able to run the normal Windows Explore or probably any file open or save dialogs (not sure on that last part).
Now right click on Quick Access, click options, then under privacy click the Clear button. It clears every item pinned to Quick Access that it put there that you used recently, but not the ones you pinned there.
If you have broken links that have a value of 0 bytes in your Quick Access folder (temporary folder file system), in order to remove them, you simply need to click on Folder Options and at the very bottom there is a button for Clear explorer file history and it should work.
Add SessTimeout DWORD in regedit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters.
The unit is second. I set it to 3 and it works well.
Remember to restart explorer.exe for applying the new setting.
Just one more question for this test run. In order to have a 3d model with the daylight simulation visible, how should I save the results to get it on design explorer? atm it only shows all the .png files as 2d -which makes sense- and the preview of the model in shaded mode (how can i change that?) without the daylight simulation.
I have also a problem with uploading my data from Goggle Drive on Data explorer. I have no error message but also nothing is being displayed. When I upload data from my laptop, it seems to work.

The more concerning bit is there appears to be a cache of my drive from the last time I used the desktop app that, as long as you were logged into my Windows user account, access requires no password or authentication.
EDIT: Proton sent me UnregisterAllOnDemandSyncRoots.exe to try and remove all registry entries which did not work. I have never seen helpdesk support send a user an executable file before, so that was a bit odd. I am hoping they will send me an official list of which entries need to be removed.
My hope with this thread was that either someone already got those instructions and could just tell me or that there was a more simple solutions, like maybe I missed some sort of option on the uninstaller.
I tried one of the drives (same one that did not work on this PC) on another PC also running Win 7 - I was able to access Properties and Format under Windows Explorer so it appears to be a problem with something on this particular PC.
I have tried unplugging all USB devices (except the mouse), uninstalling all of the USB Host Controllers in Device Manager (except for the one that runs the mouse - I needed at least one input device to work so I could shut down the machine gracefully), then shut the machine off, pulled the power plug from the UPS, waited 5 minutes, held the power button down for 30 seconds, plugged the power cord back in, and restarted the machine. The PC started to reinstall all of the deleted USB Host Controllers. Then I plugged the USB devices back in, one by one.
Actually, it turns out the problem WAS my antivirus. Strange because I had turned it off at certain points in my lengthy journey through PC hell and had therefore ruled it out in my mind as the cause.
The solution involved changing some drive-scanning options in the program (which I had already done) and downloading and running a REG file to edit the Windows Registry. After rebooting I tried the right-click option to access Properties on the working USB drive and - it worked!
Open this folder to display all of the contents of your All Files page on Box.com. You can navigate through any folder and open every file you see just as if it were a local file. Box Drive icons tell you at a glance the status of your files and folders.
If you use Windows, you can access Box Drive by opening Explorer and navigating to the folder named Box. Open this folder to display all of the contents of your All Files page on Box.com. You can navigate through any folder and open every file you see just as if it were a local file.
For supported document, video, audio and image file types, when you view files in Box Drive as Extra large icons, Large icons, Medium icons, Tiles, or Content, you will see thumbnails of file content, rather than generic file type icons. The supported file types are listed in this topic of the Box developer documentation.
