How to re-enter credentials for Google Drive in file managers?

[fusion809]

Hi,

Whenever I click the Google Drive in file manager I get the error: “Unable to access “email”(new line)Invalid credentials for email”. I’d like to correct this by re-entering my credentials, but I’m not given the option to and I can’t figure out how I’m meant to. File managers I know have this issue are GNOME Files, Nautilus and PCManFM. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for your time,
Brenton

Replace Nautilus with Nemo, sorry^

This might be related to your Google security settings. Depending on how they are set, you may need an application password ( different from your google password )
Another option is to look in ‘Online Accounts’.

Hi
Have you checked with Seahorse?

Well Knurpht may have been right, as editing the password in Seahorse didn’t fix this issue. Then I disabled two-factor authentication (which I thought was getting in the way) for my account, restarted PCManFM and I’m still getting this issue.
