I have installed Google Drive, and can access my uploaded files from a Speed Dial icon within Opera Browser.
This works fine! But there is no desktop or system tray icon, and without uninstalling and re-installing Google Drive there is no way to fix this, and uninstalling would mean I have to upload all my files again?
Is there a fairly simple way to create an icon on the desktop that will open Google Drive using the URL?
When you are on Google Drive in Opera can you not just drag the picture next to the URL to the desktop to create a shortcut?
- you don't need a program installed to access your Google cloud storage- it just adds features. So no.without uninstalling and re-installing Google Drive there is no way to fix this, and uninstalling would mean I have to upload all my files again?
But from a URL shortcut, you'd have to log in, unless already logged in.

Hello Willabong,
If you like, you could add Google Drive to the navigation pane in File Explorer.

Thank you both!
Brink: Installing "Backup and Sync" is what was missing from Google Drive, I installed it and now have a desktop icon and this gives me access to Google Drive and my files from the desktop via explorer! Thanks again to you both!
