Can one utilize google drive to run files for sierra charts, for two different computers. If this was plausible one would not have to copy files from one computer to another when ever changes were made, they would just update in google drive and both computers could use google drive uptodate files.

This is going to be problematic for multiple reasons.

1. Google Drive access is going to be very slow compared to just having the files on your computer.

2. If Sierra Chart is running at the same time on two or more computers, with the data and configuration being shared like this, it will cause a lot of unexpected issues and problems.

3. If Google Drives is not accessible for whatever reason, this would also result in conflicts later on, as files would be updated on multiple computers without being synchronized.
