Before you start:

• Make sure you are using your BCSC issued Windows computer and are on the BCSC network.  
  • This will allow you to use drop and drag or copy and paste functions to move files.
• Verify that you have logged into 'Google Drive for Windows' on your computer. 
  • This will map a drive, G, to Google Drive. This help document shows you how.
• Determine which files you plan to move. 
  • Your Google Drive is provided by BCSC.  Move only work related files to your MyDrive.
  • Non-work related files can be moved to a USB for transport home.

Instructions

1. On your computer, look for and click on Windows Explorer at the bottom of the screen.
2. Once a window opens, look for I drive in the left pane and click it.  You now have a window showing your source files on your I drive.
3. Back at the bottom *right* click on Windows Explorer again and from the pop out choose Google Drive G to open a second window.
4. The second window will show your Google Drive.  In the right pane, double click MyDrive to open it.
5. You now have your source drive I and your destination drive MyDrive each open in a window.  
6. Click on files and folders in I and drag and drop them into G.  Use care not to drop them on a folder or the files will go into the folders.  Instead just drop on the individual file section of your MyDrive.
7. Inspect.  Make sure the files you copied are on your destination drive.
