What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I need to rename some Google docs for archiving purpose but using moveto and copyto results in the file being converted into .docx format. Is there a way to achieve this using rclone?
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
rclone v1.58.1
- os/version: Microsoft Windows 10 Education 1909 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 10.0.18363.2212 (x86_64)
- os/type: windows
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.17.9
- go/linking: dynamic
- go/tags: cmount
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Google Drive
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
rclone moveto drive:google_doc.docx drive:google_doc_renamed
A log from the command with the -vv flag
