Figma Desktop 126.11.7: export to Google Drive for desktop (G:) fails – "could not be saved"
Hello,
Since Figma Desktop updated to version 126.11.7 (Windows), I can't export files to any folder in Google Drive for desktop (virtual drive G:). The export fails with:
"Failure to save the file. '<filename>.png' could not be saved. The remaining files will not be saved."
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open any file in Figma Desktop 126.11.7 on Windows.
2. Select a frame and export it as PNG.
3. In the save dialog, choose a folder inside Google Drive for desktop (e.g. G:\Meu Drive\...).
4. The export fails with the error above.
What I already checked:
- The folder exists and I have write permission (I can create files there via File Explorer).
- Google Drive for desktop is syncing correctly.
- Exporting to a local folder (Desktop) works.
- Exporting from Figma in the browser to the same Drive folder works.
- Controlled Folder Access is disabled.
- Clearing the desktop app cache did not help.
Environment:
- Figma Desktop [126.11.7]
- Windows [11 Home / versão]
- Google Drive for desktop (streaming mode, mounted as G:)

This is a blocker for my daily workflow, since I save client deliverables directly to Google Drive. Thanks!
