Without prior notice, Google has tax a limit of 5 million files created to all Google Drive customers. Although this is a very high figure, some users who had reached it have seen how they can no longer create new files in their accounts. online storage, regardless of the space available.
This limit, which did not exist previously, has been imposed without prior notice to users. Also, a striking thing about this limit is that it also affects users who pay for storage, so a person who has, for example, a 2 TB Premium plan for Google Drive, will have the same file limitation as those who use the free 5 GB plan.
The company hides behind the fact that it is a limitation imposed to “maintain the quality of the service” and prevent malicious users from using Google Drive for uses other than those of the search giant’s online storage system. However, this limit does not appear in their terms and conditions yet.
Even so, it must be borne in mind that reaching that number of files created is quite rare and a conventional user of Google’s storage platform should not be affected.
