How to make GoogleDriveBackUpSync Status Window and Status Bar floating around on the Desktop all time freely.
Any Way to export the rea-time sync status to an external display windows, s o as to monitor Sync Progress all time?!?
1* GoogleDriveBackUpSync Status Window and Status Bar should be able to be floating around on the Desktop freely.
2* Currently. The only way to keep the Status Window and Bar displayable, is to place the Cursor over them. Once the Cursor is away, the Status Window and Bar vanish. Obnoxious.
3* Just like Windows RoboCopy command, Google DriveBackupSync should allow Users to configure whether or not to keep, or to remove the files and/or Folders in the Destination Local Drives.
4* Currently. If there are discrepancies between the Source “MyDriveInCloud” and the Destination Local Drives, the App will willfully delete files and folders in the Destination, without asking. Malicious.
5* Why not borrow a page from OneDrive : clearly shows the status of files, whether synced or not.
6* During Sync, there should be a “ RestoreAll “ for all files which need attentions. It is very much infuriating to click on the “ Restore” 100 times to finish the Sync.

More. Later. Appreciate Your Attention and Help!.

To address your concerns regarding Google Drive Backup & Sync's functionality and interface, here are some suggestions: 1. Floating Status Window and Status Bar: - In the current setup, the Status Window and Bar disappear when the cursor is moved away. Unfortunately, Google Drive Backup & Sync doesn't offer a built-in option to keep them visible at all times. You can check if there are any third-party utilities that can "pin" windows in place. 2. External Display for Real-Time Sync Status: - Google Drive Backup & Sync doesn't provide a feature to export real-time sync status to an external display. You can keep the application open on your screen to monitor the sync progress. 3. Configuration Options for Sync Behavior:...

You can check in the settings of Google Drive Backup & Sync if there are options related to conflict resolution or file deletion. 4. Handling Discrepancies Safely: - Files and folders should not be deleted without confirmation, especially during synchronization. Ensure that you review the settings to prevent unintentional deletion of data on the destination drive. 5. Improved Sync Status Display: - For a better understanding of file sync status, consider providing feedback to Google about enhancing the user interface to display a clear status of files. 6. Enhanced Tools for File Restoration: - A "Restore All" feature could significantly improve the restore process, especially when dealing with multiple files that need attention. Consider suggesting this feature as feedback to Google. For specific feature requests or feedback regarding Google Drive Backup & Sync, you can directly contact Google's support team or provide feedback through their product forums. Additionally, exploring alternative sync tools or cloud backup solutions may offer more advanced features based on your requirements.
