Renerabbitt Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javatom Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Listen to Lew. It's the best way to operate. Cloud is for back up, not day to day storage of operating program or even main storage of your files. Others may disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
