To enable Google Drive downloads, you can follow these steps:
1. Open the sharing dialogue from any Google document, spreadsheet, presentation, or other file in Drive on the web. You can do this by clicking on the share button, which is usually located in the top right corner of the screen.
2. In the sharing dialogue, click on the “Advanced” option in the lower right-hand corner. This will bring up additional sharing settings.
3. In the advanced settings, you’ll see a section called “Disable options to download, print, and copy for commenters and viewers.” Check the box next to this option.
4. After checking the box, click on the “Save changes” button to apply the new settings.
By enabling this option, you restrict the ability of commenters and viewers to download, print, and copy the file. They will still be able to view the file and leave comments if you have allowed them to do so.
It’s important to note that this setting applies to all commenters and viewers of the file, so make sure you consider the implications before enabling it. If you want only specific individuals or groups to have the ability to download the file, you can adjust the sharing settings accordingly.
