Not possible to remove Google files

Question

Hi,It is not possible to remove Google files från the app. You can remove from recent and other options but not delete them entirely. Some of the files are removed from Google drive even. Please read and understand my request properly and answer adequately. I am now testing the pro- version. If I cannot solve the problem or receive adequate help within 48 hours here will be no subscription for me. Thanks in advance!/Gechen

Hi @Gry5E95,

Hope you are doing well. Thanks for writing in!

If the files are already removed from the Google Drive App, you will not be able to use the "Delete" function on the app, as that deletes the file from the source location (not the case in this scenario).

The only option would be to clear the file names from the recent list. Also, the option is in certain scenarios not available if the files are set as "Read-Only" within the drive.

Hope this clarifies your question.
