Google forms has changed their restrictions:

11/16/2021

Google has changed where the restrictions are in forms. By default users OUTSIDE of @granitesd will NOT be able to view your forms. This makes sense for child privacy reasons. IF you want other people in the world (such as parents, community members, etc.) to access your form you must UNCHECK the “Restrict to users….” Button in the form settings. This function used to be accessible when you shared the link, but not anymore.

4. You will also see the following image come up. You must click through the slides to continue.

7. From here right click on My Drive, and you will get a drop-down menu. Go to “Drive File Stream” and open this link.

This will give you the option to make your files “Available offline”. Check that option.

8. You have now made it so that you can see all your Google drive even when it is down.
