Thanks for the report. Have you set up the desktop client, opened it and restarted Files from the system tray?

We don't support Google Drive mounting as a folder instead of a dedicate drive currently.

@Josh65-2201 To detect the mounting point of Google Drive properly, we need to inspect the value of PerAccountPreferences in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\DriveFS from the Windows Registry.

Marking it as a good first issue as the fix should be trivial:

  1. Read the value of PerAccountPreferences from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\DriveFS
  2. Parse the value as json
  3. Read per_account_preferences as an array and add all items in to the sidebar, the path to Google Drive is saved in mount_point_path
