Frequently Asked Questions

How do I copy a shared Google Drive folder recursively?
Google Drive natively does not offer a "Make a copy" option for folders. With MyDrive Copier installed, open the shared folder in Google Chrome, click the extension icon, click "Auto-Detect Tab", and hit "Start Recursive Copy". It copies all subfolders and files cloud-to-cloud automatically.
Does copying shared folders use my local internet bandwidth?
No. All file transfer operations occur directly within Google's cloud infrastructure through official Google Drive API v3 endpoints. Zero bytes are downloaded to your local computer.
Does MyDrive Copier copy native Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides?
Yes. Unlike manual ZIP downloading which converts your Google Docs and Sheets into Microsoft Word and Excel files, MyDrive Copier preserves the native Google Workspace format.
Does MyDrive Copier store or access my files?
No. Your files never touch any external server. All API requests are securely executed client-side between your Chrome browser and Google Drive API.
