AOMEI backuper won't sync Google Drive

kri · May 16

hi,
I have installed Google Drive for desktop. I'm selecting basic sync in AOMEI backuper and selecting Google Drive or Google Drive/My Disk as the source folder, but I'm getting the below message when starting the sync:

Syncing is initializing...

This file/folder no longer exists, the operation has skipped it already:G:.

Information Code:4199

The source sync path does not exist.

@Kri, AOMEI Backupper can only access local folders generated by cloud desktop apps. However, due to Google's closure of the Backup and Sync app, Google no longer creates local folder, making it unsupported by AOMEI Backupper.

Hi, this is how I solved it:

In Google drive for Desktop preferences choose "Folder" for Google drive streaming instead of "Drive"
Now AOMEI backuper will sync Google drive Folder from your PC to external drive
