Thanks, I have seen, but not tried, that. &nbsp;But from a restore standpoint, I'm also looking for point in time, such as someone deletes or modifies a file and we need the copy from 2 months ago.

Need to backup files/folders on google drive, not a gsuite account drive. &nbsp;Most software I see to backup up on schedule, retention etc is for gsuite integration. &nbsp;I know I can manually download folders as zip, but would like something automated.

Backup google drive files

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
