@nijawang The relationship between Onedrive business and personal is more like Google Drive and Team Drive. Could you share more information about the error? You can try to change all the CLSID.
@cmpute I remove original Google Drive sidebar item first as below.
Then I execute "powershell -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -file ./PinGoogleDriveFS.ps1 add".
But I get nothing added...(I've restarted explorer)
So strange!
@nijawang Nothing created should be due to the failure to add register entries... But if the script doesn't report any error, then I have no idea about the problem 🤕
@cmpute Thanks!
Here are the log file. Looks like all register entries added, but no Drive FS in sidebar.

@nijawang Rebooting windows did the trick for me.
@cmpute Thanks for adding the team drive functionality! It does add the correct registery keys as I manually verified each one by looking them up in regedit.
The two menu items show up. However unfortunately clicking the sidebar menu for the Team Drive does nothing whereas clicking the sidebar menu for the personal drive correctly opens the appropriate folder. (@svenkle, maybe your experience helps?)
This is really strange as I have been comparing the code you execute for both the personal and team drive and it is exactly the same (apart from the variables of course).
It actually boggles my mind why this does not work properly as all the properties for the different attributes are exactly the same for both personal and team registery keys, as per your script.
Btw, Google decided to rename their folders again:
| en-US | zh-CN | nl-BE |
|---|---|---|
| My Drive | 我的云端硬盘 | Mijn Drive |
| Shared drives | 共享云端硬盘 | Gedeelde drives |
The casing for zh-CN might be lower case for 'drives'. This time I could not find the exact translation.
@jotosmurf Did you ever find a solution for the Team Drive ("Shared drives") not working?
@jotosmurf @jonaswouters I can reproduce the problem.. Unfortunately I didn't find any solution. I guess there's difference between the implementation of personal drive and shared drive in the filesystem, which may lead to different "Attributes" flags. But I have no idea which flag need to tweaked.
I updated the script for the new description.

@cmpute thanks for feedback.
I generate another GUID for GD File Stream, but only the icon without any content.
Because the original CLSID is same as Google Backup and Sync (Google Drive).
My GD File Stream only has "My Drive" without "Team Drive".
BTW, OneDrive Business and Personal could be co-existed.
