If you’re like most people, you probably rely on Google Drive to store your files. But what if you need to uninstall Google Drive? Here’s how to do it.
How to uninstall Google Drive
If you’re looking to uninstall Google Drive, you’ll first need to find the installer on your computer. (If you don’t have Google Drive installed yet, you can download it here .)
Once you’ve found the installer, you’ll need to launch it. (If you’re on a PC, you’ll need to right-click on the file and select “Run as Administrator.”)
Once the installer is open, you’ll need to click on the “Uninstall Google Drive” button.
Following the uninstall process, you’ll be asked if you want to delete the Google Drive folder and all of its contents. (If you don’t want to delete the folder, you can choose to keep it for later use.)
Once the uninstall process is complete, you can delete the installer file from your computer.
