Extension summary

Analyze keywords

This app will copy all contents and sub-folders within a Google Drive folder, all while preserving the original folder structure. As long as you have viewing rights on a folder, you can copy the entire folder to your own Google Drive. The folder will be placed in the top-level of your Google Drive, and you can move it from there.

To launch app: click "Visit Website" button at top of window.

Usage

Select your folder with the Google Picker, or paste a folder URL with Ctrl-C
Choose a name for the new folder
Click "Copy Folder". When the copy begins, you will be alerted that you can close the window.

In addition, the app user will become the owner of the new folder and all sub-folders and contents. This makes it especially handy for making a new copy of shared information when someone leaves an organization.

Hi Eric! I love your Copy Folder. I am a teacher and use it on the regular to create, copy and individualize folders for my students. I would be so thankful if you could please update the extension to run on the new Chrome.
