    Windows Manage Storage Spaces

    Dear Windows Team,

    Are there any list of drives which are supported to use manage storage spaces.

    As I have 10x 5TB WD My Passport Drive all drives shows error while creating for pool like the listed drive doesn't support the pool option.

    Then which drives should I use?

    Any suggestions!!!

  3. How to uninstall Google drive in windows 11 ?

    What you're referring to is the Google Drive app. Google Drive itself is on the internet.

    If none of the suggestions already offered work, here is one last thing that will. Please try your other suggestions first.

    Open Task Manager and locate the Google Drive app in the Processes tab. Highlight it and then click on the 'End task' button in the lower right corner of the window. This will simply kill it. You should save this step for last because it's better to let the app finish on its own, or to use the app's own controls to end it.

  4. manage storage and move to google drive desktop app

    Google Drive icon disappeared from notification area on right side of taskbar

    Dear ArleneL,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community



    I understand the importance of having quick access to your Google Drive icon in the notification area of your Windows taskbar and the inconvenience caused by its sudden disappearance.

    To resolve this issue, please follow the steps below:

    1. Check Hidden Icons:
      • Click the up arrow (^) located in the notification area to view hidden icons.
      • Look for the Google Drive icon among the hidden icons. If you find it there, you can drag and drop it to the visible area for easy access.
    2. Reset Notification Area Icons:
      • Open the "Settings" app by clicking on the Start button and selecting the gear icon.
      • Go to "Personalization" and then click on "Taskbar".
      • Scroll down and click on "Other system tray icons".
      • Find Google Drive in the list and ensure that the toggle switch is turned on.
    3. Reinstall Google Drive: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, consider reinstalling Google Drive Sync following these steps:
      • Uninstall Google Drive from your computer through the Control Panel or Settings.
      • Download and reinstall Google Drivefrom the official website.
    If after doing these troubleshooting steps and only the Google Drive icon is showing up with this issue, I suggest you head over to the official Google Drive forums and post a query, they may be able to provide more specific guidance on the issue you're facing.
