#Google drive sign in with browser pop up full
" popup message eventually, when the startup gets to that point. Then download Malwarebytes for a full system scan. You get the "Google Drive needs your approval.Manually open the security & privacy settings and unlock (for me I can do that with touch ID).The comment above from Steve put me on the right track. Then after upgrading to 11.3.1 yesterday the issue came back. My suspicion was that some cert had to be updated, but who knows. Somehow later the next day Google Drive started working. I had this issue when upgrading to 11.3, and messed with it for hours and couldn't fix it. In the Options menu for the app in question there should be a 'Delete hidden app data' menu. In the pop up window, select the Manage Apps tab.
#Google drive sign in with browser pop up driver
If you're quick enough, you can click it, a driver installs, the mac reboots and voilà! JohnathonSullinger Go to, then click the gear button at the upper right, and select Settings in the menu. DON'T CLICK the "Open Security and Privacy Settings" - instead, on the already open Security and Privacy settings dialogue for about 4 seconds, and for about 4 seconds only! - the button to Accept "Google Inc" appears. Close the browser window straight away, then the "Google Drive needs your approval to open your files" dialogue appears. Now do the thing in Google Drive to connect your account (it opens in a browser). I found that instead of clicking the dialogue to "Open Security & Privacy Settings" (as per screen shot). If you have that open already, and unlocked (as admin) and visible on your desktop. HOWEVER - I did manage to get it working, and it's a strange one this. If you find that, then the newer Google Drive File Stream service/app has been installed on your system and is likely the source of this popup. It could be our corporate tools (we use Carbon Black), as it doesn't seem to be a consistent issue when I ask my peers. You can check your task manager Processes panel for anything that says ' Google Drive ' and Right Click -> ' Go to details ' and/or search for something in your Details panel called ' GoogleDriveFS.exe '. I have been bashing my head with this for a few days (Updated to 11.3, then get this Google Desktop error).
