Organize Your Drive
Let's get it together!
Basic Setup
- My Drive,
- Shared with me, and
- Google Photos.
One of the best features of Drive is the ability to Share Files. However, it's also the most dangerous! If you click and drag a file to your drive, that removes the file from its current location and relocates it to your Drive.
To avoid confusing other people by making their files and folders disappear, use the Add to My Drive option from the right-click menu. Adding a file to your drive essentially adds a shortcut to the file or folder to the top level of your drive. That way, you can find it faster, but you don’t have to move it out of its original location--AND the owner can still update it.
