Major Google Drive Issue, Google Investigating. How to Know If You Are Affected, and What To Do

Google Workspace Recap

Google Drive is having a potentially massive issue right now that we have to talk about. There are articles from several major publications talking about this and the situation is still being investigated. Many users are complaining that their Google Drives have reverted back to May and are showing no activity since then. There was a long Google Drive forum support thread that has since been locked and removed and a new document with just the support comment. We are also seeing some sync issues on Mac such as Finder showing Drive needs to be running to sync, however it is in fact running, and on my wifes intel mac, in finder, folders that are in drive, when new files are added to the folder, they are not uploading despite the app saying everything is synced. https://support.google.com/drive/thread/245861992/drive-for-desktop-v84-0-0-0-84-0-4-0-sync-issue?hl=en
