It would be nice to have the possibility to see Proton Drive on the local Windows computer (and why not, Linux), mounted as a remote drive, so the visible files don't have to be necessarily copied locally before being opened. And maybe, with the possibility of seeing into it the photos synced from mobile app.
How would this proposal be different from the current windows client app?
The current Proton Drive client for Windows, features a local directory that gets synced with Proton Drive account. This directory is on the local computer disk, and needs local space to be used. Moreover, in the current windows client, it's possible file-by-file to select "free up space", but still every time the file is opened or copied somewhere else, it is downloaded and uses local space. If copies are to be done with big number of files, it's possible that the space needed overall locally would not be enough, because Proton Drive storage can hold more space than the local disk, depending on the local computer. So the feature set of the current windows client is a somehow limiting for data access, and prevents performing with success big data transfers needed for personal backup and restore.
