To empty the Google Drive cloud and free up space, you should check the Trash folder in Google Drive and permanently delete any remaining files. Additionally, ensure that you also check the Trash folder in Gmail as large attachments may contribute to the full storage. If the issue persists, you may need to upgrade your Google Drive storage plan or contact Google Support for further assistance.
There are two ways of playing a video from Google Drive:
via the browser logging on the web interface through Google Drive
via the Google Drive client installed on your computer.
The easiest way is through the browser, but the client will also provide ways to manage your files more easily than the web version.
To play a video, install Google Drive, then sync your entire cloud to PC or choose only the folder with the videos. Wait for Google Drive to synchronize the files and then browse its folder on your computer. After this, load the file in your favorite video player to watch it.
Google Drive now allows you to share your files and folder from the web version and the desktop version. From the web version, simply click a folder or a file then press the Get link (chain icon). By default the link is available immediately to be shared. On your computer, wait for the folders and files to sync then navigate to the cloud folder. Right click on a file/folder and choose Share. A new link will be generated, then you have the possibility of spreading the URL to your friends and family.
One way to secure your Google Drive is through the two factors authentication. You can enable this feature using the following link: https://www.google.com/landing/2step/
Once you enable this option, every time you sign in to Google Drive, a PIN will be sent to your email.
Second option requires additional software. For example, Boxcryptor has this ability of encrypting the files stored on your computer. You can give it a try using the following URL: https://www.boxcryptor.com/en
