Migrate Google docs to Office 365, convert from .gdoc to .docx [closed]

Solution 1:

Use the download feature. Select the files you want to download. Choose the More and select Download...

A window will popup asking what format you want to download the files in. Make your choice, then click the blue download button.

Note: this was found in Google Drive Help.

Solution 2:

The download wizard in the Google Drive interface has been replaced now by a function that downloads an archive with all files in MS Office formats. That fits for your case, but for those wanting to choose the format:

You can use Takeout: The wizard-like interface where you can choose the export format is still available in Google Takeout:

1. When configuring the archive to create, select only the "Drive" product.

2. Click the "down arrow" icon in the line belonging to the Drive product to configure the formats to export in, and the folders to include.

Problems with this approach: You can only select folders from the root level of your Google Drive files. And more problematically, the export will only contain files you created, not files shared with you. So, not useful for most backup purposes.
