googledrivefs.exe always asking again after every update? [Question] #1721

Closed jan-the-maker closed 5 months ago

jan-the-maker commented 7 months ago

Hello,

wanted to ask if it is normal, that simplewall is always asking again for googledrivefs.exe (the official google drive client for windows) after every update. I know that the google drive client updates in the background silently. Is there a way to set this "permanently" without the need to set policies for each version again? It gets a little annoying.


App version: 3.7.8 Windows version: Win11

Since it wasn't clear I'll mention, the different versions are the issue is Google changes the path to the .exe everytime. They do the same with Google Chrome too. I had this type of issue with Tinywall too.

Ah ok, i already suspected this. Is there a way to solve this by some kind of rule setting (path + x)? Just asking else we have to live with it ...

Hopefully devs implement #1727 to mitigate this.
