Dear Helpdesk Icoa,
Thank you for your inquiry.
Regarding your issue with copying Google documents from one Google Drive to another and only seeing .url files in the destination:
Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are not stored as traditional files. They exist as cloud-based documents on Google’s servers.
Therefore, when copying via NetDrive or similar tools, the actual document content is not copied. Instead, a .url file (link to the original document) is created in the destination folder.
This is the intended behavior due to how Google Docs are structured and the current limitations of Google Drive API.
It is not a bug.
We appreciate your understanding and will continue to look into possible improvements in the future.
Best regards,
NetDrive Support Team
