Google drive does not support live program authoring/backups etc. it will lock a file when it is uploading/downloading as it’s owner, which takes away parent permissions from CA causing it to crash.

Google drives reps cite this as a known function of drive though I can’t state my source

onedrive and Dropbox work fine

Thanks all for the reply's

I will take this on board and see what happens.I hope one or the other sorts it out, its hard to know who is at fault here, Google or Chief

I assure you its Google, their cloud service does not allow live co-authoring.

you'll crash consistently in google...try uploading a lot of data on google drive while an open file of Chief is running and trying to auto save..it will crash.

onedrive or dropbox will not
