Word of warning on those GMKtec PCs. They put all their drivers on a Google Drive account that they don't pay for, and there are no known mirrors of some of the drivers. So when you suddenly need to do a reinstall one day, remember that their GDrive will be over-quota for a month and you'll be SOL for a few weeks unless you can match the drivers to the ones from the OEMs.

Copy it directly to your own Google Drive, then download it from there, and it will use your quota instead of theirs.

It does not :( I have a paid Goog sub and this was the first thing I tried. It will not bypass their quota.

Try copying it to an otherwise empty folder in your Drive, then download the whole folder instead of the individual file.
