Difference between Drive and Files apps

Google Drive is a web-based storage service offered by Google, and

the Files app is the onboard storage system for your Chromebook.

Because your Chromebook makes heavy use of the web, you can

easily access files both from Google Drive and those that are stored

locally by using the Files app on your Chromebook. To use the Files

app, select the Files icon in the apps list, or use the keyboard shortcut

<Alt> + <Shift> + <M>.

This user manual uses Google Drive and Files interchangeably when

giving instructions regarding accessing files.
