Docs, Sheets, or Slides

1. Go to a Docs, Sheets, or Slides home screen.

Note:

• People with "edit" permissions will still be able to download, print, and copy your file or folder, even if this setting is on.
• If you turn this setting on, all options to download, print, and copy will be hidden from Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Slides.
