How do I remove files that I sync on my computer to take up less space but still keep it on google drive

Hi @davidm82,
Please take a look at this post for details on unsyncing to free up disk space:

Saving laptop disk space?

Hi @deadpool, Unsync, which is part of our Premium subscription, is the proper way to deal with this. It allows you to uncache local data, replacing the entires with placeholder files, and leaving the cloud data where it is. Without unsync, you can unlink the account, which will remove the linked account, and its content, from the local computer, but leave the cloud data untouched.
