To access this photo from your Windows PC, you need to access Google Photos via browser. If you want to make some changes to the image or keep it in a separate folder on your computer, all you need to do is download it. These are the steps you need to take:
- Go to Google Photos and sign in to your Google account.
- Select one or more files you want to download to your Windows PC.
- Click on the three vertical dots at the top right corner of the browser.
- Select “Download.”
- Choose the location for the file and click “Save.”
If you’ve selected to download more than one file, Google Photos will compress them into one ZIP file for more convenience.

Mac users with Google accounts can also use Google Photos to save photos and videos. The sync option is not available for them either, so to store photos from Google Photos to their Mac computer, they need to do so manually. Here’s how it works:

How to Download All Files From Google Photos to PC
Did you know that you can download all data from Google products? Indeed, Google allows users to take all their data from each product separately. Or all at the same time.
For example, you can choose to download your Google Calendar data only or get Gmail, Keep, Maps, and everything else simultaneously. You can do this by utilizing Google Takeout – a dedicated Google tool designed for this purpose.
Hence, you can download all the files from Google Photos to your computer too. If there are too many photos and videos and selecting them separately may be time-consuming. For those of you who want to save a little time, this is an excellent alternative. Here is what you should do:
- Go to Google Takeout and make sure you’re signed in to your Google account.
- Check the box next to Google Photos.
- You can click on the “All photo albums included” button and deselect a specific folder you might not want to download.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click “Next step.”
- Proceed to “Choose file type, frequency & destination.”
- Select “Create export.”
Google then gathers up all the files and prepares them for download. Once finished, you’ll receive an email notification with a download link.
Note: Depending on how many files you have in Google Photos; it might take anywhere from few minutes to several hours before you receive the option to download.

What Is the Storage Limit on Google Photos?
One of the reasons Google Photos was different from other Google products is because it used to offer unlimited storage. It allowed users to keep thousands of pictures and create as many albums as they wanted.
Unfortunately, as of June 2021, Google has discontinued this practice. Now Google Photos storage is a part of the same free 15GB available across all Google products.
If you want more storage, you need to purchase it. Initially, this news caused some concern among those who already have much more than 15GB worth of photos and videos in Google Photos.
Google Firestick App
However, every file stored up to June 2021 remains “as is” in Google Photos and isn’t affected by the new rule.
