LRajesh555 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 A Shell Namespace Extension that creates a virtual filesystem around your Google GMail account. # Gmail Drive Shell Extension is a tool by which you can use Google's email service as a storage facility and access the files from Windows Explorer, via My Computer. It just adds a new drive to your system that will act just like any other drive. # The interface comes down to a simple screen where you can input the Gmail account information. The main window holds only a few options, such as a dedicated setting to preserve filenames and another one to use secure HTTP. # The application comes with proxy server support and this means that all you have to do is provide the username and password to make the connection work. # Thanks to the fact that it places an entry into the Windows Context Menu, you can send a file using a single right click. Of course, the faster the Internet connection, the better the program functions, especially when copying files to or from the Gmail drive. # You can use a simple drag and drop operation in order to transfer documents to and from the Gmail Drive folder. # When you create a new file using GMail Drive, it generates an e-mail and posts it to your account. The e-mail appears in your normal Inbox folder, and the file is attached as an e-mail attachment. # Another useful feature of this tool is its ability to automatically verify if there are any new arrivals in your mail account. Even if sometimes it can be a hassle to get Gmail Drive Shell Extension to work properly and leaving aside connection problems that are known to appear, the utility does a pretty decent job overall. It provides a great way of moving files from your mail account to your hard-drive or vice versa, create new folders and manage the files easily.
