I have installed the Google Drive client for Windows. However, the status icons (green check mark, à la DropBox) are not appearing next to the files' names in Explorer.

I'm running Windows 7 Pro SP1, with Google Drive client Version 1.5.3449.3345.

Any ideas?

I found this post with a similar problem but other software: Why are Icon Overlays (from 3rdParty-Apps) not showing up in the Win8 Explorer?

It seems that you have two options:

  • Delete any entries other than GD (Google Drive)
  • Rename the entries (like inserting numbers in front of the name), because Windows takes them by order (0-9; then a-z something like)... it will looks like this, but with GDrive entries taking the 0's and 1's as the first entries:
