Enable and Use Google Drive’s Offline Mode
As an online storage site, Google Drive requires an Internet connection. But if you will need to work on your Google Docs, Google Sheets, or Google Slides files when you do not have an Internet connection, you can enable Google Drive’s Offline Mode, which makes local copies of files. To use Offline Mode, you must use Google’s Chrome browser app rather than any other browser.
With Offline Mode active, you can work on the files when your computer is offline. Once your computer connects to the Internet again, Google Drive synchronizes the local files with the online files.

TIP
How do I make a Google Drive file available offline while I am editing it?
When you have a Google Docs, Google Sheets, or Google Slides file open for editing, you can make it available offline by clicking File to open the File menu and then clicking Make available offline. A readout such as Document now available offline appears in the lower-left corner of the window to confirm the change.
If you click File again, you will see the File menu displays a check mark next to the Make Available Offline command.
Open a File
To work with a file in an app, you open the file from the folder or location in which it is stored. You can open the file either from Google Drive or by using the Open command on the app’s File menu.
Each file type has a default app associated with it. For example, the Google Sheets app is the default for the Google Sheets file type, as you would expect. When you double-click a file in Google Drive, the default app opens the file. To use a different app than the default, you can use the Open With command.
