Google Drive "offline" is available only for files Every file you edited or created while offline will sync back with the online version of Drive when the network connection is reestablished (click on Switch to Docs online or load an entirely new Google Drive page with a refresh).

Steps to make a file offline:

  1. Go to your drive and select a file in a folder/individual file.

  2. Click on "i" (information) which is next to edit, navigates to Details.

  3. You will see an option "Keep me on device". Turn it on.

  4. This file becomes offline available.
