Worklet Details

Why would you use the Install Google Drive Worklet?

The Install Google Drive Worklet provides a seamless way to install Google Drive across diverse operating systems. It saves time and eliminates manual installation errors, allowing users to focus on utilizing Google Apps without worrying about initial setup.

The Powershell based Install Google Drive Worklet is especially beneficial for administrators who handle multiple systems and need a reliable, automated solution to manage Google Drive Sync across their network.

Components of the Install Google Drive Worklet

The Worklet consists of a script that checks the system's registry for any existing Google Drive installations. If it doesn't locate any, the script proceeds to download and silently install Google Drive, before providing an output of the operation's success or failure.

How does the Install Google Drive Worklet work?

The script functions by first checking the system type (32 or 64-bit). For 64-bit systems, it checks both the 64 and 32-bit registry for Google Drive installations. If it finds none, it exits for remediation. For 32-bit systems, it only checks the 32-bit registry. If it doesn't find an installation, it initiates the download and installation process of the Google Drive File Stream.

What is the expected outcome when you use the Install Google Drive Worklet?

Upon successful execution, the script will have installed Google Drive on the system, enabling the user to access their Google Drive files directly from their desktop app. This brings the power of Google Drive for Desktop to the user, integrating seamlessly with Google Docs and offering the convenience of Google Drive Sync.

If the installation does not succeed, the script will provide an output message stating that Google Drive could not be installed.
