I’ve tried to do that, but it never actually makes the copy. I have legit left google drive run overnight and it did not make a copy. I don’t know what the issue is.
That is odd as I just did that tried the fix myself with no issues 🤔
Are you seeing the copy you made in My Drive ?
Copying stopped working for me in the middle of downloading the individual stems for Hal’s TROS project to encode the DTS track. I had to wait, like, 3 days to download the center, LFE, and rear channel AIFF files.
Seems the only real way to get around the quota now is to right click on the FOLDER containing the files you want, and click “download,” forcing Drive to ZIP all of the the files inside the folder (though it usually won’t actually ZIP the large MKV file itself, that will just start downloading after it ZIPs everything else). You just have to wait for the ZIP process to finish.
The copy method no longer works, and the straight download method seems to be perpetually at quota.
Google Drive fucking sucks for fanedit sharing now, man…
