What’s happening with Google Drive? The Drive service itself isn’t changing, and certainly isn’t shutting down. Instead, Google is replacing the Google Drive software for Windows and macOS with a new app called Backup & Sync. In reality, not much is changing aside from the name: Backup & Sync has pretty much the same set of features as the old Google Drive all and works in the same way. This is the app you’ll want if you’re a home user, regardless of whether you’re using the free Google Drive account or you pay for extra storage over and above the free 15GB....
