Google Drive Drops Support for Windows XP and Vista
While it shouldn’t come as a shock to most, it is official. Starting January 1, 2017, Google Drive for desktop will no longer support Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003. Given that Microsoft themselves no longer support these older versions of Windows themselves, it only makes sense that Google and other stop supporting it too. The announcement came via the Google G Suite blog and was very clear that while the app is no longer supported, it should still work. There won’t be any support or any further updates to the builds of Google Drive for these platforms.
