Google Drive Removes Disputed File Limit Weeks After Discovery

Anil MauryaBy 3 Mins Read

Google’s five million file limit, which was inadequately explained, has been removed. When it comes to cloud storage solutions, Google Drive is among the most well-known and, quite frankly, the finest.

Google has quietly implemented a controversial file creation restriction of five million items to optimize its server infrastructure. Although this threshold is anticipated to be achieved by just a small fraction of all users, it was a surprise to those who were paying for Google One’s higher levels and swiftly led to anger against the company.

The corporation has therefore declared that it will reverse the change that has caused so much uproar. Google Drive Removes Disputed File Limit Weeks After Discovery

Google Drive did not specify the five million file limit in a Twitter tweet, but rather referred to the change as a “system upgrade to Drive item limitations” designed to “preserve stability and maximize efficiency.”

Even though just a small percentage of users were affected, the company has decided to revert the move “while we investigate alternate options to provide a wonderful experience for all.” The company added in a subsequent tweet that it would be more proactive in informing users of upcoming changes in the future.

Here is the official tweet given below you check –

We recently rolled out a system update to Drive item limits to preserve stability and optimize performance. While this impacted only a small number of people, we are rolling back this change as we explore alternative approaches to ensure a great experience for all.

The company’s initial rollout of a limit of five million files was plagued by miscommunication. There was no notice about the increased limit in any of Google Drive’s documentation, and users weren’t alerted that they had reached it until they tried to upload or create another file.

Those who paid for 2TB or 5TB of storage were hit harder by the limit, which was another area of criticism. After all, users can expect to spend $25 per month to store an unlimited number of files. As if that weren’t bad enough, trashed files still counted until they were deleted by hand (or automatically disappear after 30 days).
According to androidpolice, We can only hope that Google will provide a more open line of communication with its most valuable customers if it decides to continue pursuing this file creation limit for its stability and speed benefits.
