With Google Drive, you can store and share data among your various devices and allow friends and coworkers to access information you designate for sharing. As clear from the above comments, users are getting a 'Drive File Stream requires your approval' prompt upon opening up the Google Drive app, soon after installation.

So, Google File Stream isn't work in Mac OS X High Sierra (10.13).
You saw complicated directions about deleting Application Support files, like the DriveFS folder, closing Chrome, restarting. None of them worked.
This probably will.
Ughhh…. the solutions was so easy, I overlooked it.
Or expected that Google and Apple would have worked this out.
It's a permissions things.
1. Start Google File Stream. You will of course get the error message.
2. Leave Google File Stream Open
3. Go to System Preferences -> Security & Privacy
Click on the ‘Allow…' button.
3. Put a checkmark besideGoogle, Inc. 'Hey, I know them!! :)' https://divinefree.medium.com/truecafe-full-version-with-crack-eaf2bb030a24.
That really should do it.
Have another try at signing into File Stream.
If it's still not working close File Stream, and start it again. :)
