Just cut and paste the folder into the Google Drive folder on your PC.

If you're accessing Google Drive via an URL (https://drive.google.com) rather than an app, just select :

New>Folder Upload

lve done this on my pc, gone onto drive select new... gone onto pictures and clicked the folder l want to download and ok but nothing happens.
on the side the file box is empty and it says name of file so l dont know if this should be filled in.
So l cannot upload the folder so l double click onto the folder and it opens it up and l see all my pictures in the folder, it will let me upload one at a time but it would take a long time this way..
l just want to upload the whole folder somehow:(

Still not getting much look , how hard is it to upload a folder with photos instead of uploading one at a time ..

Stingray - you need to do the following three things..
1. copy (or cut&paste) the folder or file(s) into the Google Drive folder
2. ensure that the "Google Drive" software is running on your PC (either start it manually, or set it to autostart at Windows start time).
3.ensure you have an active internet connection.

... if you have checked these 3 points, and it's still not working then please come back.

Select folder or file, Right click, Select Copy
Open Google drive folder, Right click, Paste.

You can also drag and drop a file from one folder to the other, by holding down on left click.
