I wonder, is there any way to automatically finish this task?"
It seems impossible to upload files to Google Drive automatically. In fact, you can automatically upload your files like photos, videos, and music to Google Drive if you have Qiling Windows backup software. To realize this function, this tool will create an image of your file to Google Drive daily, weekly or even at a specific time so long as you have set a schedule.
You can preview the image, but if you want to edit it, you must copy it to another place or recover it by using the tool. The image is a little bit different, for it takes less space but the content keeping the same.
