Google Drive for Windows now supports ARM-based devices like laptops with Snapdragon chips. This feature is included in the new beta version of the app.
What is known
This was announced via the Google Drive community. Previously, ARM-based devices couldn’t use Google Drive for Windows due to the complexity of file integration. With the release of this beta version, ARM device users can now use all Google Drive features except the Outlook Meet plugin.
Google warns that this is a beta version and may still contain errors. It is therefore recommended to use them only for non-critical data and to create backups.
ARM support was announced back in September, and Google recently expanded Quick Share for Windows to ARM devices as well. This news is an important step for ARM device users, who can now fully utilize Google Drive on their devices.

How does the new Google Drive for Windows beta version improve the experience for ARM device users compared to previous versions?
Thank you for your interest in an interview about the new Google Drive for Windows beta version supporting ARM devices. Our first guest is Javier Gonzalez, an IT developer who has been using ARM devices for personal and professional purposes. The second guest is Susan Thompson, a technology journalist who has been following Google’s progress with ARM support closely.
Javier, could you please tell us your thoughts on the new Google Drive for Windows beta version supporting ARM devices? How do you think this will impact your workflow, and what excites you the most about this update?
Javier Gonzalez: As an IT developer, I have been using ARM-based devices for quite some time now. The fact that Google Drive didn’t support them on Windows was a significant drawback, especially when it came to working on critical projects. However, the new beta version is a game changer for me and my colleagues. We can now access all the features of Google Drive without any compatibility issues, which is great news. The ability to sync data across devices seamlessly is going to make collaboration easier and more efficient. The integration with Android apps is also an exciting feature that we are going to explore further. I am looking forward to using this update to streamline our workflow and improve our productivity.
Susan, could you elaborate on the importance of this update for ARM users? What are its potential implications for the future of ARM devices in the Windows ecosystem?
Susan Thompson: This update is significant for ARM users because it opens up a wide range of possibilities. Previously, they were unable to use Google Drive for Windows due to compatibility issues. Now, with this beta version, they can access all the features of Google Drive, including synchronization and file sharing. This move by Google could potentially pave the way for more software developers to support ARM devices on Windows, which would, in turn, increase their adoption rates. Moreover, it could lead to the development of more innovative and powerful ARM-based devices that cater to users’ specific needs. It’s still early days, but this update shows that Microsoft and Google are committed to supporting ARM devices, and that can only be a good thing for users who are looking for alternatives to traditional laptops and desktops.
