Hey hyunoklee82 - sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that in this case you can move your Google files over to Google Drive or converting them to other, more suitable for your team, formats. 

 

You can find more information here.

    I'm not really in a position to make that decision - I'm not the admin.

I'm the outlier - so I'm trying to find a workaround.
