Clean Up Your Google Drive Add-on

Use this Hot Mess unofficial Add-on to clean up your Google Drive.

Clean up your Google Drive by creating a Hot Mess folder and dragging all of your files into the folder. Do this faster with my unofficial Add-on, exclusively for members. 

Make a copy of the Add-on. This is a spreadsheet with a “Hot Mess Organizer” menu at the top next to the Help menu. You’ll need to authorize the Add-on. As usual, it is safe and you’re only authorizing yourself access to your own files. Run again after you authorize it. Now, let the magic happen! A folder will be created and all your files will be moved into the folder. Very efficient! 

AS YOU USE A FILE, organize it. No need to organize your files in advance. That is overwhelming. Start from scratch and move forward!

  1. Is there a way to leverage this so that after organizing, I could then transfer ownership of folders and files in “bulk” through the google sheet? I’m desperate to find a solution for transfering ownership that isn’t about google takeout or having to tediously go through a long checklist on one screen and then my google drive on another.
