No, this is Not a clickbait. And to the moderators: If you have some respect, leave this open until resolved.
I’m a former Unity user. Early this year (2022), I shared a bug report with Unity through Google Drive, uploaded the project there with them. They (Unity) were Three (3) Manager’s, and I (1) was placed as a Content manager. In short:
Manager can access, share, edit and delete content.
Content manager cannot.
I am now stuck with this folder in my own Google Drive, Even after I left Unity. The “Remove” option is greyed out, due to the reason mentioned above.
I Googled for an answer, and to my surprise, there were none. None that you can do yourself, but I have to contact Unity and ask them to give me permission to delete it from MY Own Google Drive(!); Thus, hacking and hijacking my service.
Confidential Should I share their emails, you should notify me.
It’s not a Google Drive bug, it’s their API. Content manager is not allowed to delete shared content from their drives; They should ask Manager to give them access, so here I am.
If Unity has the mind capability to be a corporation, they should’ve read Google Drive API and not leave users stuck with obsolete files.
P.S.: There is no Google support, FYI. No human interaction whatsoever.
In any case, it is a folder shared with you, you don’t own the folder, so you can’t remove / delete the folder, the thing you should be looking for is if you can reject the shared folder or “leave” the shared folder, or whatever terminology Google Drive uses.
Have you directly contacted one of the managers that can solve this weird impasse?
How many days have passed?
Because, you know, this is holydays season and people maybe doesn’t read urgent mails about almost depleted, but not yet depleted, disk space.
Thanks you for your solicitude! You can see it clearly stated in the image I provided(under, Share date); Jan 27, 2022.
I didn’t contact them, yet, because it’s been a while since then, and probably the Managers don’t work together in the same department anymore, so I saw the opportunity to open a thread first to see what support can be given, saving contacting them for the last.
If Google Drive doesn’t allow solving it, I would have started contacting one of them, and after some time the others, as a first move. Who else could solve this issue?
As a unity user I can’t help other than saying how much times I was flabbergasted by google drive limitations so much that I couldn’t even suggest you to read the documentation carefully. Often it’s a waste of time.
The replies in this thread show you that your thread was clickbait, accusatory, false, defamatory and just a pile of bullshit. I see you are a deleted user now; good riddance.
