Now, let’s get back to our topic at hand. Last week, I received a Google Drive video shared with me in “View-Only” mode. The challenge arose when I tried to share this video with my team and they encountered “Access Denied” errors when attempting to open the link. Frustrating, right?

Well, fear not! Today, I’m going to share with you the steps to download such videos without the need for external plugins. Are you ready? Let’s get started.

Step one: Open Chrome and navigate to the Developer Tools. To access the Developer Tools, simply right-click anywhere on the webpage and select “Inspect” or press “Ctrl+Shift+I” (Windows) or “Cmd+Option+I” (Mac). Once the Developer Tools panel opens, click on the “Network” tab.

Step two: Now, reload the page where the video is playing and you should see a list of network requests appearing in the Developer Tools panel. To easily find the video link, filter the results by typing “videoplayback” in the search bar.

Step three: Once you’ve located the filtered link, right-click on it and select “Open in New Tab.” This will open the video in a new tab.

Step four: Lastly, right-click on the video in the new tab and select “Save Video As.” Choose a location on your computer to save the video, and voila! You have successfully downloaded the Google Drive video.

Now that you have the downloaded video, you can easily share it with your team by uploading it to a shared drive or even uploading it to YouTube, depending on your use case. Remember, sharing is caring!

Well, folks, there you have it - a simple and effective way to download Google Drive videos when faced with “Access Denied” errors. It’s all about continuous improvement, finding solutions to everyday challenges, and making our lives easier.
