I am setting up a new laptop from scratch.

 

My computers have all got google drive installed, and work I do and save updates the other PCs.

 

each PC has a folder on the C drive in the USER folder entitled GOOGLE DRIVE, and this contains the files.

 

My new Laptop has not got this folder, but I have installed "Google Drive for Desktop"

 

What am i doing wrong as nothing is syncing to the new PC

Hi:

Scroll down to the section titled “Sync Files to Google Drive or Backup to Google Photos”

You're most welcome.

Did you resolve your file upload/sync issue?
