Select Google Drive only if it appears as a supported provider in your installed edition.
Steps for Windows
- Open Duplicacy Web Edition and review Storage provider options.
- Choose the supported Google Drive integration if available.
- Authorize the intended account and select a dedicated destination.
- Run a small backup and restore through the Duplicacy interface.
How to verify the result
You can retrieve one chosen revision without depending on the original file.
Do not claim a specific third-party cloud connector exists if it is absent from your version.
Why this matters
The practical goal is a recoverable Duplicacy revision, not just a successful-looking progress indicator. Keep your source, backup destination, Backup ID and necessary credentials documented. If this workflow changes your retention or storage configuration, verify a restore before applying it to important data.
