Cloud accounts · Google Drive

I signed in with the wrong Google account. How do I fix it?

Short answer: Remove the account and add it again, picking the right one on Google's "Choose an account" screen (or Use another account). Google accounts can't be switched in place, and neither Drive is changed by doing this.

Remove that account and add it again, choosing the right Google account this time. Google accounts can't be switched in place.

  1. In Cloud Accounts, select the account and click Remove.
  2. Click Add Account → Google Drive, reuse the nickname if you like, and click Open browser to sign in.
  3. On Google's "Choose an account" screen, pick the correct account — or Use another account if it isn't listed.

Nothing in either Google Drive is changed by removing or adding the account.
