Windows 10: Windows August 2020 updates deleted google file stream and changed all settings

dj511185 · Aug 17, 2020

The recent major Windows updates deleted all the settings on my laptop for Google File Stream, changed all settings to MS defaults for browser/email/photos/music/EVERYTHING, and completely changed my file strucute in File Explorer.

The fact is; Microsoft changed every setting for every non-MS app to whatever MS feels is their equivilent version.

Microsoft, I may have to "rent" 365 and Windows...but it is still my computer.

Drive File Stream to replace Google Drive plug-in for Microsoft Office

What’s changing

We’re updating Drive File Stream to replace the functionality of the “Google Drive plug-in for Microsoft Office.” As a result, the outdated plugin will be shut down on June 26, 2019. This only impacts users of the Google Drive plug-in for Microsoft Office. Those users will notice two key changes:

New Drive / Outlook integration: The update to Drive File Stream will include a plugin to manage Google Drive files from Microsoft Outlook. This will make it easier for users to use Google Drive without leaving the Outlook interface.

New process to save to, or open from Drive: Drive File Stream users can save and open Drive files through the regular menu, rather than using the Google Drive plug-in for Microsoft Office interface.

To save to Drive, use File > Save, then choose a destination in Drive File Stream.

To open from Drive, Open through the File > Open menu and find the file you want.

If your organization uses the Google Drive plug-in for Microsoft Office, you should make sure your users are using the latest version of Drive File Stream before June 26, 2019 to ensure continued access to this functionality.

The new plugin will bring Drive to the Outlook interface

Who’s impacted

Admins and end users

Why you’d use it

Drive File Stream offers an easy way to integrate Microsoft Office and Google Drive. The latest versions (30.1 and up) will include the new Outlook plugin that will make it easier for users to:

Save attachments from Outlook to Drive

Attach Drive files to Outlook messages

Ensure recipients always have access to Drive links sent in Outlook emails

Drive File Stream already makes it easy to save to the local Drive File Stream folder through the regular “Save” menu.

By ensuring your users are using the new plugin before June 26, 2019, there will be little to no disruption to their workflows.

How to get started

Admins: Make sure your users are using an up to date version of Drive File Stream. Use our Help Center to learn how to deploy Drive File Stream for your organization.

End users: Ensure you’re using an up to date version of Drive File Stream. Use our Help Center to download and install Drive File Stream on your computer.

Additional details

Users of the Drive for Office plugin will see an in-product notification, pictured below, starting on March 27, 2019. This will encourage them to update to the new plugin to continue using Drive from Outlook.
