More About the GSLIDES Files Extension
GSLIDES files are typically small because they hold only key data, not the full document. This lets Google Drive for Desktop quickly open the linked Google Slides file without needing to log into your account or search through Google Drive.
The GSLIDES file extension works across multiple operating systems. You can open it on a Windows PC, Mac, and any system that supports Google Drive for Desktop.
How to Open GSLIDES Files?
Opening GSLIDES files is simple. Double-click the file from your file explorer under Google Drive > My Drive. Google Drive for Desktop will launch and open the associated Google Slides document automatically.
You can’t open a GSLIDES file without Google Drive for Desktop, as it’s the sole program for this extension. To use a 3rd party app, first open the file in Google Drive for Desktop. Then export it as a PDF or another compatible format.
