And I delete all of these single-use files at the end of every day from my Chromebook. So saving them all to Google Drive is a waste of space. I download many photos for this blog, for example, but I only need them once. This is because I often create, modify or view some files on my device that I don’t want or need after I take some action on them. and it’s a sub-folder of the main Downloads folder. Set up a specific folder or choose the standard Downloads folderįor my purposes, I decided to create a new folder in My Drive under the Google Drive option in the Files app. Short of remoting into the Chromebook with your Downloads, this is probably your best option to accomplish that task. You might want to do this because you want access to those files on another Chromebook or from another device entirely. In any case, here’s how to store your Chromebook data both locally for offline access and online with Google Drive. Google no longer uses this language when marketing Chromebooks.
That’s not the case and it never has been at least not by default. Here’s how to change a Chromebook Downloads folder to Google Drive.įor starters, I should note that Google used to advertise Chromebooks as storing all data in the cloud. But, what if you want to have all the files locally stored on your Chromebook essentially backed up? You can easily do that. Google Drive notifications for the same Google account work in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari on the same computer as well as on other Mac and Windows 10 computers, so it appears as though this issue is isolated to Brave.By default, the Chromebook Downloads folder is simply a local storage area on your device called “Downloads”.
Either this just isn’t a high priority, or it’s something that’s more difficult to resolve than it appears to be. This seems like it should be trivial to resolve, but is still unresolved over 2 years after first raising awareness. Both were closed due to inactivity within 30 days from the last update. I searched the community and found there are at least two other threads regarding this same issue - one in 2018 and the other in 2019. NOTE: Even if you manually add * to the allow list for notifications within Brave settings, the same error message applies.ġ.23.73 - Windows and macOS versions both exhibit the same behavior Note error pop-up in the lower left-hand corner of the Brave window: “Couldn’t enable notifications”.Select the checkbox next to "Get updates about Google Drive items in your browser.Enabling Desktop Notifications for Google Drive Fails
