Microsoft Office 2016 will save your documents to OneDrive by default. But, if you use Google Drive or Dropbox, you can save them to those services, too.

Microsoft Office 2016 provides a comprehensive set of tools built into the suite, this includes Cloud storage specifically targeting its OneDrive service by default. For many people, including myself, Dropbox remains my go-to online storage solution. Many other people use Google Drive or a combination of all three.

Here’s a look at how to add both Dropbox and Google Drive as Save Locations in Office 2016.

Google Drive with Microsoft

The first thing to do is download the free Google Drive plug-in for Microsoft Office.

Wait while the web installer is started and downloads a small setup file automatically to your hard disk.

Then double-click the driveforoffice.exe and wait while it installs.

When setup is complete, launch any of the Microsoft Office 2016 applications. A Google Drive for Microsoft Office setup wizard will appear. Click Get Started and sign into your Google account and complete the wizard.

Google Drive will then be added to your list of Save locations on the Office Backstage.

Dropbox has promised to provide support for Office 2016 later this year when the new version of the suite is generally available.

It’s worth noting that Office Online, which includes the web-based versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint does have native support for Dropbox as a Save Location. Launch Office Online, and in the lower right corner, under Open from OneDrive, select Add a place, and Dropbox will show up.
