How To Merge Zip Files From Google Takeout – On A Chromebook

If you’ve downloaded files to your Chromebook using Google Takeout, and they’ve been split into multiple different zip files, don’t worry, this video has you covered.

In this video, Timmy shows you how to correctly extract and merge multiple Google Takeout zip files back together the way they’re meant to be. So that all your files will remain correctly organized in their correct folders.

Unfortunately, on a Chromebook, there’s no automatic way to do this, so you have to do it manually, but Timmy walks you through the best way to methodically go through all the folders and correctly merge them together as easily as possible.

However, this process is a lot easier on a Windows or Mac computer, so if you are able to use or even borrow a Windows or Mac computer for a few minutes, it will be easier to merge these files on that computer.

To do this, you just need to copy the zip files to a flash drive, Timmy has a video on that here.

Then, plug the flash drive into the Windows or Mac computer, and begin extracting and merging the files. Timmy has tutorials on both operating systems below:
