Does BeyondCompare4 work reliably in Google Drive?

[Aaron]

Hello,

BC4 does not directly connect to Google Drive as a remote resource type (like we do for Dropbox, OneDrive, etc). If you can bind it as a local drive location with the real files downloaded (not temporary shortcuts), then BC4 can load and compare them. This does not include the Google specific file types, which aren't files but are shortcuts to webpages.
Our trial is fully featured and available for any testing before purchase is necessary:

Is this feature planned for the future?

[Aaron]

Google Drive support is something on our customer wishlist, where our developers go for ideas for future features and enhancements. It's something we would like to tackle, but is a large project and commitment, and our current development schedule is pretty full.

We're still tracking feature requests for Google Drive support, but it doesn't have a scheduled release date.
