Google Drive Icon multiplying

Allister Lewis

Hi there, I am getting an issue where the Google drive icon is multiplying across the screen, this is causing general slow down, the drive not syncing correctly and also keeps jumping off the page I am on (so text stops typing). I think this is related to Bitdefender but not sure exactly what part. Any help appreciated.

After collecting information from various sources on the internet, it seems like the issue lies with Google Drive itself. The suggested solution as of now is to uninstall Google Drive and then reinstall it.

Hello.

OS Windows 10 Pro 22H2 x64 With Latest Windows Updates Installed
OS Build 19045.4355
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19056.1000.0

Google Drive 90.0.3.0

I'm a long time Google Drive user and never (i repeat: NEVER) had any issues with the Google Drive icon and/or with the Google Drive app itself.

So, i strongly believe that Bitdefender is NOT the culprit for your issue.

You should contact Google One Support here:
