Once Google Drive for Desktop is installed on a Mac, theGoogle Drive folder can be found in your Finder.
On a PC, Google Drive will show up under "Devices and Drives" in File Explorer. This folder will contain both your personal Google "My Drive" and any Shared Drives you are part of. The only difference between these files and any other file on your computer is that these files are not stored on your computer by default.
