Error when trying to login to Google Drive from third party apps

by Lima_L

Every time I try to login to Google from a third party app on CCwGTV, for example to add Google Drive to FX File Explorer or to backup Tasker settings to Google Drive, the process starts well by showing me a list of my accounts on the device for me to select one, but then I get a message that says: 

Something went wrong
Sorry, this app is not supported. Please try again later

This used to work before. A few months ago, when I setup CCwGTV for the first time, I was able to add Google Drive to FX File Explorer and to create a Tasker task that copied files between my device and Google Drive. However, when trying to do this again I get the error above.

Note that the features configured originally continue to work! What I'm unable to do is to create new ones.

I've tried a number of things: I've disconnected my USB hub, connected via Wi-Fi, removed additional accounts, turned off VPN, and disabled developer options. I believe my setup is now as vanilla as it can be without resetting to factory, which I would loathe to do.

Help?

Thanks!

I get that error as well using Solid Explorer.

Es file explorer has been taken off the Play store that will be why. I can't remember why exactly but think it was some dodgy code.

It's not just Drive. There are quite a few apps Google is not ready for us to access from CCwGTV. What kind of profiles are you using in Tasker? I mostly use it to control when it sleeps and turn notifications into toast messages, but you can also use a Google search intent to trigger the assistant.
