Upload from a hyperlink
Ideally we would have remote upload but then I guess that's not possible due to E2EE. So, instead give a web UI feature, where instead of having to manually download and then upload, the Web UI itself downloads the file onto storage and encrypts and uploads it.

Windows client on mutli-account PC
I am using two different user accounts on my PC (one for work, one for private purposes).
I want to access and sync my private Proton Drive folder while using my work profile. OneDrive supports this, I just create a folder, e.g., c:\OneDrive and enable sync on both user accounts. If I do the same with Proton Drive, it tells me that's not possible because the folder has to be empty to initialize the sync process.
Right now, I would need two separate folders with the same content, wasting disk space and bandwidth because all files would be synced twice.

Web PDF Viewer Improvements
Here are possible improvements to the pdf viewer (web):
- Remove encryption
- Convert to PDF/A
- Convert to Linearized PDFI think the first one is the most useful for people. And once this is implemented, the other two could be easy to implement (given the toolchain required for the the first one).

Crucial information on reinstalltion is not documented, seriuosly impacting on what is cloud stored. Default setting not appropriate
New features:
* Relevant documentation
* The removal process in the app should NOT have the default set to "Remove Proton Drive settings and previously remembered credentials"
* Removal of a named folder from the list of folders that set to be synced is too simple.I could not find any documentation on this, only found out by multiple tests.
If your plan is to reinstall the Proton Drive app and expect to return to syncing as before with all previous versions intact - Be careful.
If you have to reinstall on the same PC/laptop at program removal time you…

Option to ignore sync issues in specific folders
ProtonDrive displays a bunch of sync issues for file locks which may be unessential to sync immediately. This presents a problem for when actual sync issues show up which may go unnoticed. There should be an option to disable sync issues for specific folders, as well as a section to display "ignored" sync issues.
In my case, I have ProtonDrive to sync my Thunderbird profiles. Thunderbird constantly uses these files, so there is a file lock on many of them and ProtonDrive is unable to sync. This is expected functionality however, and the files will sync once Thunderbird is closed.…

Option to periodically stop and continue uploads in order to avoid failing uploads
When uploading to the Proton drive using the Web interface, due to network issues, sometimes uploads of large files (e.g. 2GB) are aborted and then fail. In case of Proton drive I then have to upload such files from their beginning. That's quite frustrating, especially if the upload fails after 90% or so of the file. Workaround: I periodically halt the upload for a few seconds and then continue the upload in order to avoid trouble by possible timeouts somewhere. Would it be possible to automatize that, e.g. periodically halt and continue the upload after blocks of e.g. 64 MB?…

AI auto files organisation for drive
Now we have a lot of AI tools to help us, but no drive has implemented an artificial intelligence solution to organize our files automatically.
We all have lots of files lying around but we never have time to organize them well, put them in the correct folders, etc. An AI that does this for us will be perfect

Introduce alerts when a file/folder is downloaded
I would like to get alerted when a file/folder is downloaded, the alert can go to a different email than my proton account. With this I believe will enhance the awareness of important files

Proton Drive VAULT / ARCHIVE area that is cloud only and excluded from all app sync operations.
It would be desirable that a part of your Proton Drive that should only be in the cloud and not visible to the app.
Currently the Windows app syncs everything:
* Everything in the directories that you select is uploaded
* Everything in the "My Files" can be accessed from desktop by cloud stubs that the app creates.It would desirable to be able to select what you want from Proton Drive storage to be visible to your Win desktop. This could be done several ways:
* The app have a button with the options of syncing/not syncing your Proton…22 votes -
more space! we should have the option to have 1TB minimum or even up to 4TB.
500GB is nowhere near sufficient.
I want the privacy and security proton drive has, but it should really be 1TB at minumim, and we should have the option to add more.

Website backup functionality
Website backup possibility.
I work as a Wordpress developer and would love to see Proton Drive as a backup possibility for my customers. Most of the major Backup Plug-ins like Duplicator Pro or Updraft Plus have direct connection to Google Drive, and Dropbox. It would be great to have Proton Drive as an option. Im sure this would bring more paying customers to your great services.5 votes -
Simultaneous access to multiple Drive to/from single desktop device
Allow access to multiple drive on the desktop app-simultaneous login, upload to/download from distinct drives to/from single desktop device. Currently, we can access more than one account on the Drive desktop app, but not simultaneously (feature to add account doesn't exist). Also, once logged into more than one account, we should be able to upload and download to each account or from each account using the same device.

Improve drive sync algorithm to greatly improve performance
Proton Drive is extremely slow to upload my files, it's going at around ~200 Kbps, whereas speedtest.net shows I can do 3.62 Mbps upload.
This is especially noticeable when there is a large number of small files to sync (eg, photo collection).
I suspect that a potential cause is that new threads might be created to upload each individual file, resulting in the unnecessary opening and closing of many connections. Perhaps a better solution would be for each upload thread to establish a continuous connection and then pipe multiple files through that connection as raw data, which can be split…

A configurable setting for the number of threads you upload with - enabling speedy upload of many small files.
In the desktop client during initial configuration I would like to be able to increase the number of upload threads to on-boarding significantly quicker.
For instance, if I have a code repository uploading to Proton Drive and the repository is composed of a node modules directory or a python modules directory there might be tens of thousands of files, and each one of them may be less than a kilobyte.
In this case the time taken to initiate the connection, write the data, and report it as finished takes up almost all of the overall time.

Do not download "other computers" files by default
During a second installation of ProtonDrive software on a laptop, I had to re-download dozens of gigabytes from the first desktop PC.
I wish this could have been deactivated, I would have just retrieved a file or two from the web interface if necessary.

ProtonDrive Screenshot instant sharing feature (Like dropbox has now)
I think everyone who is using or have been used Dropbox for files sharing on macOS was happy and find it so useful and time saving feature - instant screenshot sharing option. For those who doesn't know I explain how it should work.
You make screenshot on the macOS (SHIFT+CMD+4) and your screenshot is instantly uploaded to ProtonDrive and the URL link copied to clipboard.
Asking for macOS Client firstly, but if possible to make it for Linux and Windows as well, why not to include it in the roadmap?
