Failed to copy entire Google Shared Drive

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Failed to copy entirety of Google shared drive.
I backup my Google shared drive (size 54GB) onto a physical hard drive. I ran rclone to backup my google shared drive but probably the connection was lost and not all the files were copied as backup size is just 49GB instead of 54GB. I do not want to run the entire backup once again. Is there a way to find and backup only the files that were left out?

A log from the command that you were trying to run with the -vv flag

Don't have logs as the OS had froze and had to be restarted

welcome to the forum,

that is an old version of rclone, can run rclone selfupdate

rclone will not re-copy files that have not changed.
so, if you re-run the original command again, rclone will find the missing files and copy just those missing files

rclone check <RemoteName>: /path/to/folder/ --missing-on-dst=files.txt -vv
rclone copy <RemoteName>: /path/to/folder/ --files-from=files.txt -vv --dry-run
