Getting Started With Google Drive

Question

How should I get started working with Google Drive? 

Answer

Once on your Google Drive homepage, you will have a variety of options to get started. On the left side of the page you should see a My Drive section. This is where all the files you have uploaded will appear over time and you can access them right from the home page. The homepage also allows you to:

  1. Select Shared with me to access incoming files from other Gmail users 
  2. Select Recent to view recent files you’ve worked on
  3. Select Starred view starred files 
  4. Select Trash to manage the trash.
