Encrypt Existing Contents on GDrive

Help and Support

hi,
the only way to encrypt a file is to create a crypt remote and then copy files into that crypt remote.
so that command will not work.

  1. create a crypt remote, let's call it secret
    https://rclone.org/crypt/
    set Remote to encrypt/decrypt to gdrive:encrypted
  2. copy files into crypt
    rclone copy -pv gdrive: secret:

if you do not have a good internet connection, some rcloners use a free google cloud compute virtual machine to run rclone
