So it’s the day of your big presentation, and it turns out you left your laptop at home. Thankfully the file was synced to your Google Drive, and you manage to download it to a friend’s computer with twenty-five minutes to spare. But then you open the video only to find that you forgot to cut out one of the scenes!

Just a few years ago you would be out of luck. Today, you have options. WeVideo is a video editor that allows you to to load Google Drive videos and edit them inside your browser.

Using WeVideo

The first thing you need to do is install the WeVideo Chrome app. Create a new project by entering a name into the space provided and click on the big blue “Create Project” button.

WeVideo offers three editing modes. Since you want to cut out a scene from your video, skip the basic “Storyboard” mode and select the “Timeline” option presented. This editing mode presents a more traditional interface for editing videos.

Next you’ll need to upload your file to WeVideo. If the video is saved on your hard drive, you can upload it directly to the service. Since you forgot your computer, you’ll have to import your video from Google Drive. Click on Drive, authorize WeVideo to access your Google account, and navigate to the Google Drive video you’re seeking to edit.

The uploaded clip will have to be processed, which can take up to several minutes. It will appear in the video section of your project when it’s complete. Click and drag the video to the timeline to get started.

If you’ve used a video editor before, the next step should feel familiar. Go to the beginning of the scene you want to cut and give it a snip. Then navigate to the end of the scene and snip again. Snipping is performed by clicking on the scissors icon located under the preview player.

Select the scene you have split and drag it over the preview window to delete it. You will need to drag over the latter portion of the video to join up with the first portion. Hopefully the transition between the scenes isn’t too jarring. If so, WeVideo offers several transition effects that may help alleviate the problem.

Export your edited video using the “Publish” button in the toolbar. By default, WeVideo will export your video to 480p and place a watermark in the top right corner. To export in higher resolutions and remove the watermark will cost you a couple of bucks. Select Google Drive, and the published video will appear inside your account.

You’re Done!

The scenario I’ve created isn’t entirely plausible. WeVideo makes editing videos easy to do from a browser, but the time it takes to upload and export videos prevents video editing in a hurry. Even if you were to finish editing the Google Drive video before the audience began to pour into the auditorium, it probably wouldn’t finish exporting until after your presentation had already started. Regardless, knowing how to use WeVideo in a pinch can save you from having to run home to retrieve the computer you left behind.

If you’ve ever found yourself in need of such a tool, share your experience with us in the comments below.

We’ve all downloaded files from the web to our computer. However, if you’d rather download files directly to your Google Drive account, there’s an extension for Google Chrome that allows you to do just that.

Google’s Save to Google Drive extension allows you to save downloaded files directly to your Google Drive account, as well as save webpages to Google Drive as images, HTML files, or even Google documents. If you’re using the Google Drive desktop client for Windows or macOS, you can save downloaded files directly to your local Google Drive folder and they will be uploaded to your Google Drive account automatically. However, using the Google Drive client uses space on your computer, which isn’t ideal if you’re low on space. The Save to Google Drive extension can also be useful If you’re using Ubuntu Linux, which does not have an official Google Drive client.

NOTE: The Save to Google Drive extension saves files to the Google account you are signed in to in Chrome. So, switch to the Google Chrome profile that corresponds to the Google Drive account you want to save files to before using this extension.

We’ll show you how to install, set up, and use the Save to Google Drive extension in Chrome for Windows, but it works the same way on Chrome for macOS and for most common Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu.

Install and Set Up the Save to Google Drive Extension

To install the extension, visit the Save to Google Drive extension page in Chrome and click “Add to Chrome”.

A confirmation dialog box displays asking if you want to add Save to Google Drive. Click “Add extension”.

A button for the Save to Google Drive extension is added to the toolbar to the right of the address bar.

Before using the extension, we’ll set up the options for it. To do this, right-click on the Save to Google Drive button on the toolbar and select “Options” from the popup menu.

The options for the extension display on a new tab. By default, the extension is set to save files to the main My Drive folder in your Google Drive account. To change this, click “Change destination folder” in the Save to Folder section.

On the Select a Save to Folder dialog box, navigate to and select the folder in which you want to save files by default and click “Select”.

NOTE: You can still change the Save to Folder for each file you save to Google Drive. If you want to save most files to the same location, this setting makes it quicker to save files to your predefined location.

The Save to Google Drive extension also allows you to save a webpage as an image of the entire page (default), an image of the visible page, raw HTML source, a web archive (MHTML), or even as a Google Document. In the HTML pages section, select the format you want to use when saving webpages. If you’re downloading Microsoft Office files or comma-separated files, you can automatically convert these files to Google Docs format, by checking the “Convert saved link to Google editor format” box.

Once you’ve made your selections, click the “X” on the Options tab to close it.

Download a File Directly to Google Drive

To save a downloadable file to your Google Drive account, right-click on a download link and select “Save Link to Google Drive” from the popup menu.

The first time you save a file or webpage to Google Drive using the extension, a dialog box displays asking you to allow the extension to access and use the information listed. Click “Allow”.

The Save to Google Drive dialog box displays and the downloaded file is saved to your Google Drive account either to the main My Drive location or to the folder you specified.

You can also change the name of the downloaded file to whatever you want by clicking “Rename”.

Change the file name in the Rename box and click “Apply”.

Click “Close” to close the Save to Google Drive dialog box.

The webpage file is saved to your Google Drive account.

Save a Webpage Directly to Google Drive

To save a webpage to your Google Drive account in the format you chose on the Options page, click the “Save to Google Drive” button on the toolbar.

The webpage image, HTML, or Google Document file is uploaded to your Google Drive account either to the main My Drive location or to the folder you specified.

Once the file is uploaded, you can click “Rename” if you want to change the file name.

Change the name of the file (leaving the file extension alone) in the Rename box and click “Apply”.

You can change the location where the file will be saved in your Google Drive account by clicking the “(change)” link, which opens the Options tab again. If you click “(change)”, the Save to Google Drive dialog box automatically closes. If you’re not changing the location, click “Close”.

The webpage file is saved to your Google Drive account.

Due to security restrictions, when saving webpages using the Save to Google Drive extension, you cannot save chrome:// pages, such as chrome://extensions or chrome://flags, or Chrome Web Store pages.
