I did not have such behaviour with macOS 10.14.

This is new since 10.15 only.

What I tried: Format the laptop and install 10.15 from scratch (still crash) Update to latest 10.15.1 and 10.15.2 (still crash) I uninstalled file stream, deleted the cache and config and re-installed (still crash) The system extension is enabled of course I tried with and without other appdrivers that might interfere like Paragon NTFS and extfs and VMWare fusion.

Even alone on the machine I still get crash I contacted G Suite enterprise support and even after many crash logs sent to them and many drive fs diagnostic zip file captured they just dont know what is going on and are still in denial mode.

Google support told me that I have to do this for each upgrade of Drive FS.

Which I think is nonsense, but that is what Mac users have to do.

Solution: Open System Preferences Go to Spotlight Select the Privacy tab Click on the plus sign Select the Google Drive File Stream folder Done No more crash and hang the kernel.

I suspect possible conflicts with: Bitdefender (still crashes with bitdefender off) Paragon NTFS ExtFS drivers Just decided in the meantime to stop running GFD.

The fact we both use Paragon drivers might be a sign, though.

Google Drive File Stream repeatedly crashes both of my Macs if left running for some 30-40 minutes in the background.

Had to revert to using rclone cache mount (thus requiring FUSE to be installed) to prevent kernel panics.

Still experiencing the same issue on MacBook Pro 16, 10.15.2.

Anyone tried to use an older version of File Stream.

Started in 10.15.2 for me.

Now I just cant use it..

Im on a MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018) with SSD.

Its crashed several times forcing a full restart in the last day.

I didnt have a single crash since I followed those steps in a 4-something hours timeframe.

Have you removed the LibraryApplication SupportGoogleDriveFS folder prior to those actions.

Drive FS has just crashed my second (newer) 2019 iMac, so I admit this fix doesnt reliably work for each configuration, even though the macOS build is the same (19C57).

Its at least slightly better since I followed those instructions.
