It&#8217;s a breeze, it just shows up as another device in Windows 7. But when I started up my computer this morning it reported &#8220;This version of Google Drive is no longer supported. Please install the latest version.&#8221; And has no links to get the update. WTH? How do I update Gdrive on my Win7 PC?<\/i><\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dave&#8217;s Answer: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For a company that pays so much attention to the user experience, it&#8217;s quite surprising that there&#8217;s no auto-update feature, not even a link to download the updated software from the Google servers. Then again, Google&#8217;s also demonstrated time and again that it expects a certain level of sophistication on the part of its users, and I surmise this is yet another example of that.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately you have my site to help out, right? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start at the beginning. Google Drive (aka &#8220;gdrive&#8221;) is a simple interface that lets you store and retrieve files on Google&#8217;s Internet-based storage network, making it a great way to have photos, docs, etc, instantly available on any device, be it a Mac, PC or mobile device. Logged in from a computer at an Internet caf\u00e9 in Bangladesh? You can get to all your Google Drive documents there too.<\/p>\n<p>Install it and all just works. Until you see this:<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, you&#8217;ve already seen it, right? This is exactly where you&#8217;d expect some sort of update link, but it&#8217;s not there. So how do you proceed?<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pcmatic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/old-gdrive-1.png\" alt=\"old-gdrive-1\" width=\"473\" height=\"167\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-43230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pcmatic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/old-gdrive-1.png 473w, https:\/\/www.pcmatic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/old-gdrive-1-300x105.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 473px) 100vw, 473px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><BR CLEAR=LEFT><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.askdavetaylor.com\/fix_google_drive_gdrive_no_longer_supported_out_of_date.html\" target=\"_blank\">Steps Continued Here<\/a><\/p>\n<p><i><font SIZE=\"2\"><\/p>\n<p>This post is excerpted with permission from Dave Taylor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:www.askdavetaylor.com\">Sign up for Dave&#8217;s emails<\/a> about free tech support and special offers on books, seminars, workshops and more.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/techtalk.pcpitstop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/drive150.jpg\" alt=\"hdfail\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-43216\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8230;when I started up my computer this morning it reported &#8220;This version of Google Drive is no longer supported.
