Each Google user receives 15 GB of free storage that can be shared via Google Drive, Photos, and GMail. In order not to exceed the maximum over time, you should always keep an eye on all memory hogs. Today we are going to show you a simple trick that you can use to convert the largest files into google drive You can find it and delete it if necessary.
Google has sometimes come up with a hard-to-understand architecture that Google Drive, Google Photos and also GMail have to share a common quota of 15GB by default. On the other hand, other storage-intensive services like YouTube offer virtually unlimited storage space. This build might make sense to Google, but it quickly becomes a problem for the user – that is, when the virtual disk is nearly full and you move one service over the other two.
Anyone who uploads a lot of data to Google Photos or Google Drive and maximizes quota will also have problems with GMail – because suddenly no more emails can be received. Now you can either buy storage from Google One or you have to delete the data. There might be some huge memory in your Google Drive account that you forgot long ago and now causing problems.
Unfortunately, Google Drive storage management is rarely found and offers plenty of room for improvement. After all, it’s possible to show the biggest consumers of storage space – if you know where to look.
So you are showing the largest memory servers in Google Drive
Google Drive offers a list organized by file size that shows you at a glance which files are taking up the most space. Just call either this url Or click the short stats below the memory usage bar. You can find this bar on the left under the main menu, where you can also go directly to Google One to purchase additional storage space.
Of course, large files don’t automatically need to be candidates for deletion, you should of course already know what you’re doing and possibly lose. Especially when it comes to the GB area, there may be unnecessarily huge archives, RAW files from shooting sessions, whole movies, or other content that you’d probably prefer to park elsewhere. Just look at it and quickly get a large storage space.
Remember: deleting the file will only move the file to the Recycle Bin, where it will still take up space. So delete it from there and within a few minutes the account is back in the green. If you don’t, it will be automatically deleted from the Trash after 30 days.
