I am trying to view a Google Drive that is a link sent to an email, we'll call it Gmail A. When I click the link in my email, it opens in a different account, Gmail B.
When I change the account viewing the folder, as I would when this situation happened with a specific file, it exits the folder view and does not give me access to it on Gmail A. Even though both accounts should be able to view the folder since it's just an open link.
I need to view this folder on Gmail A in order to make a shortcut to it in a restricted folder that only Gmail A has access to.
But I can only view the open folder with Gmail B.
Am I gonna have to log out of Gmail B in order to do this....
Also you can't log out of just one Gmail account, which means that I would have to log out of all of my currently logged in accounts (which is more than just A and B), and then re-log back into all of them again.
Yes, I am actively trying to de-Google myself and everyone around me, but that is not a solution to this specific problem in this specific moment.
Is there a way to just... view this folder link with the account I want to view it in.
Why is this a Problem.
I just added Gmail B to the restricted folder, made the shortcut, and then removed Gmail B from the folder.
This solution sucks
