Fix Google Drive File Stream on macOS 11 (Big Sur) Beta 1, 2 & 3


Google Drive File Stream just doesn't work out of the box on Big Sur due to the way that kexts are loaded.

Follow below to get File Stream working.

Step One: Launch Terminal

Step Two: Run in terminal
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mtan93/googledrivefilestream-bigsur/master/fix-bs-filestream.sh -o ~/fix-bs-filestream.sh && chmod +x ~/fix-bs-filestream.sh

Step Three: Run the script in terminal by pasting ~/fix-bs-filestream.sh

Step Four: Then allow the dfsfuse kext under System Preferences > Security & Privacy and reboot your Mac.

Step Five: Run the script again by pasting ~/fix-bs-filestream.sh

Finally the mount should pop up on the desktop!

Please Note: this is not compatible with Drive File Stream Version: 41.0.2.0+
