[NFBCS] Unable to Uninstall Google Drive

[Brad Snyder]

Try opening the task manager, and then select the start up tab. Now look for Google Drive in the list of applications that start automatically at login and select the disable button. once you've done that, restart your machine and then see if you were able to uninstall Google Drive.

HTH.

Hello Peter,

Would rebooting the machine allow you to get rid of the google drive application?

Subject: [NFBCS] Unable to Uninstall Google Drive

Hello everyone,



               We're having an annoying dialog box pop up telling us that our Google Drive is full and are unable to close it with JAWS. Since we're trying to tighten some belts here we decided to remove Google Drive from our desktops to avoid having to deal with dialogue boxes we're unable to close on our own. I tried uninstalling Google Drive via the Windows Control Panel and was told that it could not be uninstalled because the program was in use. A check of our running applications showed that this was not the case.
We're running the latest version of Windows 10 with JAWS 2021. I looked in notifications to see if notifications for Google Drive could be disabled but did not find an option for controlling Google Drive notifications. Some assistance with getting rid of this annoyance will be very much appreciated.



Peter Donahue
