Google Drive Tutorial - Managing Drive

hi there I'm Jamie Keaton welcome to my Google Drive video series today we're gonna take a look at how to view and manage them your files with a few different options we have in Google Drive so what we're gonna start with it's just a simple thing with a view right now I'm in my grid view it's called I can switch the view of this at any time to list view by just letting this button right up here now this switches me to my list view I still have a little bit of option to see to change this a little bit to if I go up to my gear setting here into my

settings and then I go over to density I'm just going to move it so you can see a little bit better here and let's say I go to compact and you can see everything got squished here on the side so I hit done and you can see that you got a completely I mean a more squished look if you wanted to manage your files if you could see things if you just wanted to see more of your files but if I go back over to my grid view it doesn't change anything in there so on

my left hand side here you can see I have one something called recent is what you would expect it to be all the docs that you most recently worked on will show up here with the start you can see right now I have no start but if I wanted to add a star to something if I thought something was really important that I wanted to get back to easily I could take a picture like so I could click my three little dots here and add a star I can

also find the star by right-clicking and finding it - just like many of the other ways the right-click will give you the same options so if I go to my start you can see that this image is placed in there also if I delete something so if like if I say now I wanted to delete this image here I'll just spray click and go to remove and then if I check out my trash you can see it's in the trash just because in the trash doesn't mean you can get it back I'm gonna select it now again you could right click on it and restore or you can use the restore up here also if I go back to my drive you see it back in here so at any time - if you wanted to find out the details of any file or folder that you have just select on the folder and then you have these are the details up here so you can see kind of the activity on that certain file or folder or the details with the dates and different times that things have been adjusted to it so these are just a few of the tips how to manage and view your Google Drive so like I said keep on watching for a few more tips and tutorials still to come if you like what you see please subscribe to my channel
