I have been using Google Drive for desktop on my M1 MacBook Pro for a long time, but recently my folders on my google drive stopped syncing suddenly (Some folders are on my windows laptop and drive just basically mirrors them to my mac). On my other devices drive is running completely fine. There is no problem of storage shortage on my account too.
At first, I signed out and signed in but that did not work. So I completely uninstalled and reinstalled it, but in vain. I was seeking help from google high tier support team but nothing really worked for my Mac.
I have attached what pops out after the sign in. I have searched on the internet for a long time but to my surprise I did not found a single person with my kind of problem. The troubleshooting I tried are mentioned below:
1. Signing out and in
2. Uninstall and reinstall
3. Using mac on a different network
4. Signing in with a different google account
5. Deleting the DriveFS folder and restarting the computer
6. Reset user preferences on drive
7. Google drive proxy setting change from Auto-Detect to Direct Connection
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!
