Google drive pop up

Hi.

I have a windows 10 pc and have Google drive shortcut on desktop. When I double click to open ny Drive pc folder a popup appears with a bell on it. Below my email address at the top it lists ACTIVITY & NOTIFICATIONS.

It is driving me mad. I have stopped all notifications in Drive settings but it still appears and cannot dismiss it. I disappears when it wants.

Seriously considering dumping Google drive and using onedrive... a bit drastic I know but it is driving me mad.

I have disabled drive in the start menu- didn't work.

Can anyone help please? Many thanks

Same question. Half a year later, no answers. Ugh! I'm surprised there aren't more seeking answers because this is really annoying.

Only recently started seeing this on my desktop and haven't found a way to disable this annoying popup short of preventing the app from starting up. Drive is nestled inside my Onedrive so I don't really need or care that there's any integration.

Admin console: go to Manage Shared Drives. Hover over any name under the Creator column then click Manage members.

Not very intuitive, I agree; Google filed this under improvements.
