I'm trying to figure out if I can change the location for Start-Transcript in PowerShell to save directly to a cloud storage service, specifically Google Drive. I often switch between different devices, so a cloud solution would really streamline things. Any ideas?

Have you checked the `Get-Help -Name Start-Transcript -Full` command? There’s a `-Path` parameter you can use to specify where your transcripts go. You can set it to a synced location if you have it set up, though it wouldn't directly support Google Drive.
You could use OneDrive instead of Google Drive if you're open to it. Just start your transcript there and it'll sync automatically. It might be easier than trying to directly save to Google Drive.
You can specify a location for your transcript using the `-Path` parameter in Start-Transcript. However, note that it generally saves to your local filesystem or a network drive. To use Google Drive or other cloud services, you need to sync them to a local folder first. Otherwise, it won't work directly with those services.
Yeah, but I would have to manually type the location every time I start a transcript.
