    Attempting to share a computer's Google File Stream G Drive with locally connected...


    Hopefully there's a workaround to this,
    We have everything working as expected, the Google File Stream drive has shared folders within that communicate and share contents with other computers on our network, unfortunately, we can't leave this running for extended periods of time as a reboot causes sharing to turn off for all folders in the drive.
    Our hope is to keep this central computer unattended like a NAS and perform the task of being a Google File Stream machine. Everything seems to work perfectly up until we have to leave the computer alone for multiple days.

    Every restart turns off the file share. Google File Stream makes a virtual drive on the computer so it's understandable that Windows file sharing is having trouble restarting file share.

    Is there a way to make sure file sharing stays on or for a way to make sure Windows does not restart for extended periods of time?

    :)
