en | I still do not know and recognize the purpose of this app. Typical for Google, who has become so ignorant on users' needs. I repeat this, was siad by Leonardo da Vinci: Simplification is the highest level of perfection! Nobody at Google understnads thais, which is also tru fro many of the large IT companies. You at Google (true aslo for other big IT companies), simply ignore the needs and wishes of the c onsumer. |

en | This is not a click for functionality extension. You should unpin it from your browser. Read positive reviews on the way people are correctly using the extension.] The extension offers functionality when you are in Google drive by allowing you to open files to the desktop application of choice, rather than just the google tool in a browser that corresponds to the file type. E.g. - You can open gdoc and docx files saved in GDRIVE either in Microsoft Word (local) or select where else you would rather open the file rather than just in your browser. Similarly, you can open csv, xlsx, gsheet files in Microsoft Excel rather than Google Sheets. Open thmx or pptx in Powerpoint rather than Slides. |

en | Uhhh... Is there something I'm missing? When I click on it, nothing happens. I use other chrome extensions and I like the functionality extensions can offer. A google drive launcher seems pretty great, but literally nothing happens when I click on the extension |
