titleFiles on ChromeBooks

Save files by:

Expand
  • Logging into g.ucla.edu, UCLA Box, or any other cloud storage to save your files online
  • Using the Files app to save or open files and then transferring those files to a USB drive

PLEASE NOTE: Chromebooks do not have much storage capacity, and CLICC Chromebooks wipe all local data when you exit your session or turn off the computer.

Avoid losing locally saved files by:

  • Not exiting your session, which occurs when a user ChromeBook turns off the ChromeBook
  • Closing the lid only will keep your settings and locally stored date, but will put the ChromeBook to sleep

PLEASE NOTE: If you close the lid to retain files and settings, make sure to keep the ChromeBook charged. If it turns off, all locally saved files will be wiped and settings reset.
