you saved my neck man, 2024 and its still working. you should be working at google and replace all of their customer support personnel, you were the only one who was able to provide a working solution. thank you
2024 and windows 11 and still working. 15 days waiting for google engineers to solve it and they can't check this short and easy DIY... Now considering moving to Dropbox or MS cloud. Thank you very much mate.
Thanks David. I had exactly the same symptoms, copied your shared folder down to the correct position and doubleclicked the uninstall.exe. Worked a treat. :)
Thank you very much! I accidentally deleted Drive's installation folder so I can't remove it. I have downloaded the files you shared and I have removed the Drive. Everything is fine for me. I am grateful to you!
Thanks David! Was struggling since 1 hr to get rid of it, tried uninstalling everything by even performing "rm -r" via the CMD, even tried removing the registry entries by "autorun" program by windows, but no luck. Your video was a blessing, thanks again!🙌🏻
Thanks for the simple and effective solution. Add "Эта версия Google Диска уже установлена" to the description so that Russian-speakers can also find this video. :)
Helped a deinstallation of Google browser settings. -regedit -delete any google browser's directories, every time check for the installation's possibility.
Hi, thanks for your video !! do you know, if it's possible to install Google Drive on a regular drive rather than a virtual drive? I can not do it in any way. I would really like your information on the subject.
I am following these steps, but when I click on the uninstall drive as did by you, it can't uninstalled. It shows the message "Google drive is in use. you must quit the program before uninstalling". What to do in this case? Please revert asap.
Thanks! I received the same message but my problem is different. My desktop Google Drive was working very well on my laptop. I just created another account for my computer. So now I have two accounts on my Windows laptop. The Google Drive is working very well on my old account, but for my new windows account (I created a local account), after downloading Google Drive for pc, it shows this message: This version of Google Drive is already installed. I don't want to uninstall it as it may affect my Google Drive on my original account. Do you have any idea for this problem?
Good morning mate. thank you for the video. However, when i try to get the files from your shared space, i get the message that i was not able to send you request to allow me to get them.
Hi David, When I had this problem, I tried to clean the remaining files of Google Drive with Revo Uninstall before I came across your video. I wish I didn't try :( The Google file in the Program Files Folder is completely empty. The Program Files (x86) folder contains the installation files, but there is no Drive File Stream folder there. The folders are Chrome / Chrome Remote Desktop / CrashReports / Drive/ Picasa3 / Temp / Update .... I tried to remove the files in the rar folder by putting them in the Drive folder. The program is removed, but after the restart I continue to get the same error in the new installation.. Is there a solution you can suggest?
Pra mim resolveu apenas colocando a pasta disponibilizada para download, no diretório de instalaçao e colocando pra desinstalar. Feito assim reiniciei e consegui instalar novamente. Obrigado.
After uninstall tried to reinstall and got "A newer version of Google Drive is already installed" this message was coming ,I can remove app data local and control panel ,also delte but still same error msg displayed, please solve my problem What to do? How can I install Google drive
Hello Ganesh, you have the different error msg, because it needs the newer files, please try to use below files instead, and run exactly the same steps with the video: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1A_ah_jCAYhr1wf08nqnJMVAgVoHvNKYg?usp=sharing **the files are running on windows 64bit hopefully you get the good news after. Cheers.
If the error message exactly the same as the video shows, please try to copy the files that i share in description to the default target installation folder, and follow the rest steps. Hopefully it will works.
Thanks David. THE ONLY ONE THAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM AFTER HOURS SPENT ON THROATS . Thanks again
