   You may get a popup asking you to log in to Google. If you don’t see the popup, click the gears icon in the bottom left corner of the screen. This will bring up the settings menu. Here, toggle the switch to Store Files in Google Drive. When you flip the switch, you should then see the popup asking you to login to Google.
