I have used this utility to transfer ownership of Word documents, Excel sheets, Powerpoint projects, PDFs, batch (.bat) files, and various other file types. However this was with a G Suite for Education account. Ownership cannot be transferred across G Suite domains.

Your suggestions hold true for personal Google Accounts, but not for organizational G Suite accounts. I'm working on issue #3 with one of my commits. I'll add some information to the ReadMe as well.

I agree with @Paraka321, and I've mostly used to transfer between members of a G Suite organization. I'd be happy to merge this change if it's updated to explain that this caveat is only true outside of organizations.

I added it to the README in my fork along with updating the program to work with Python 3 in my pull request.
