Google Photos will be accessible from the Chrome OS file explorer

Google Photos

Until a couple of years ago, Google Drive users could access their library of photos available in Google Photos, a function that Google deleted stating that it didn't make any sense, a decision that did not sit well with the user community, but we had no choice but to accept.

With the confinement motivated by the coronavirus, many have been the people who have opted for a Chromebook to be able to continue working and studying from home. This device is managed by Google's Chrome OS, an operating system that will resume access to the photos available in Google Photos.

According to the guys from Android Police, Google is working on the Google Photos integration with Chrome OS file manager. In this way, users with a Chromebook will be able to access all the photos stored in Google Photos without having to previously download them to their devices, so they can organize them directly in the cloud.

In this way, Chrome OS incorporates the same function that you will soon receive also Google Drive file manager application for PC and Windows, an application that allows work with files on demand, that is, it will not be necessary to download all the content from our cloud to be able to work with them, they will be downloaded according to our needs.

Chromebook devices they are ideal for the educational environment, especially in those centers that have adopted the Google solution to manage student resources.

However, not a solution for any user Who wants to use applications that are only available on Windows, although in the Play Store (which Chromebooks have access to), we can find quite interesting alternatives.
