 If you need to remove access to some Google Drive files from somebody who has left your team, this is how you do it. First, you need to know the email address associated with your Google Drive account, the one that you shared, the email address you shared with them, to them in the first place. So once you know that email address that you want to remove access from, click on the search options icon in your Google Drive and then scroll down to where it's a share to and then enter that person's email address. Again, the one associated with your Google Drive account. I have one here called George Calteam. I'm going to go ahead and do that. That's another Google Drive account of mine. And then once I do that, I click on the search button. And now these are the files that I have shared with the George Calteam Google Drive account. And let's just say I want to remove these files. Okay, I'm going to go ahead and click on these files and multi-selecting. So on the Mac, it's command click and on the Windows, it's control click. Anyway, I selected three files. Now I'm going to click on the share button on the top right. And then what I'm going to do now is you see George Calteam, right? That's the account that I want to remove from access to these files. I click on editor. It might say commenter or viewer or editor. I'm going to move my video here. Okay, and then instead of editor, I click on remove. Okay, and then it's suspending changes. I'm going to click on save. Now George Calteam has been removed from these files. And to show you that's the case, I'm going to go ahead and click on one of these files. And then you can see here it says private only to me. Now if you had previously opened the file and you just went back to that tab, you may have to refresh the file to update the privacy that you have just recently changed. Now let me show you another example of something that might be confusing to some of you. So for example, I'm going to select this file. Let's see here. And then I'm going to multi-select this file as well. And now I'm going to try to remove George Calteam by clicking on the share icon. And when I go here, it says varies. What does that mean? If I click on varies, I can't do anything. I can't remove them. What this means is that one of the files or folders I have selected is actually owned by the other person, George Calteam. And not all of them are owned by me. That's why I can't change the ownership or remove them from these selections. So in order to find out which ones were owned by them, if it's only a few, I could literally click on them. And for example, this one is owned by, you know, when I click on a file, by the way, if you don't have the, if you only are seeing it like this, oh, there you go. You might see owner right there. Okay. And as a column, or if you have the I selected, well, you've got to click on the high details to see which ones are owned by you. You can only change the ownership if it's owned by you. So then again, these are the files shared with George Calteam. I can select them and remove ownership. I can show you here. It says varies, but varies now. Interestingly here, it says removed. Now, why is it this available? It's because I am the owner. And maybe it says varies because maybe the George Calteam account has, has editor access to this one and commenter access to that one. Maybe something like that. So I hope this is helpful. If you want to remove that person, for example, if I want to move George Calteam from any of these folders, I have to ask them to transfer the ownership over to me before I can remove them. They, if actually, if they know how to transfer ownership, they should be able to know how to, how to. So for example, let me, let me show you. Let's say I wanted to remove myself from the access of this file. What I can do is I click on this file, click on the share. I add George Calteam. Okay. And then let's say I make them an editor. Okay. All right. And then let's say they're an editor now and I want to remove myself. I go here again. I make them the owner transfer ownership. Okay. Send invitation to transfer ownership. Oh, actually, I'm sorry. They have to select, they have to accept. But once they accept, I will be able to select myself and remove myself from the file. So that's how that would be done. Well, I hope this is helpful. And if you have any other tips to share with others on ownership transfers in Google Drive, you can comment below or if you have any questions, you can comment below and either I or somebody else who knows something might be able to answer. All right. Take care.
