Sure, you could open up drive then search, but how about just searching drive from the address bar instead. This can easily be set up in just a few steps.
- Open up Chrome’s settings and find Manage Search Engines
- Click Add
- Name your Search. I’ve used “Google Drive”
- Name your shortcut. I’ve used “gd”
- For the URL enter this:
https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/search?q=%s - Click the Add button
Now in the address bar type gd followed by your search terms. What should appear are the results from your Google Drive account.
