Add or Remove Google Drive from Navigation Pane in Windows 10
If by originally you mean after running the .reg file and before changing the path in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{81539FE6-33C7-4CE7-90C7-1C7B8F2F2D41}\Instance\InitPropertyBag. It was like this:

The icon of Google Drive was visible in navigation pane of windows explorer but after clicking it the error message was shown stating that the path does not exist, which is true because the path: C:\Users\jakub\Google Drive does not exist on my computer. Instead I have a path C:\Users\jakub\Dysk Google.

Summing up originally icon in navigation pane was directing to C:\Users\jakub\Google Drive and it did not work in file explorer. What is more the google drive icon in Open File/Save File window was not working as well originally.

After reading post of @Kbird I decided to change the path in the registry and the icon in navigation pane of file explorer started to work properly. However it did not change the behaviour of google drive icon in Open File/Save File windows - it is still directing to the non-existing path C:\Users\jakub\Google Drive. So I believe there is another registry entry responsible for path in Open File/Save File windows but I have no idea which one.

UPDATE: rebooting the computer as @res80 suggested solved the issue!
Is there a way to "pin" Google Drive directly to the Navigation Pane of File Explorer in Windows 10
As I said in the title, is there a way to "pin" Google Drive directly to the Navigation Pane? I have noticed that in Windows 8, this was already done. Just to clarify, I'm not trying to pin this to Quick access, Purely on the pane on the side of File Explorer.

Thank you.

Add or Remove Google Drive from Navigation Pane in Windows 10 Hi Rob,
I really like your solution. I have found one small problem and I am not faulting your batch file. The problem most likely is with Google Drive and in all likelihood beyond my expertise to fix.

The round blue syncing icon overlay never appears when I have Google Drive in the navigation pane. The green check mark icon overlay seems to be working okay. If I remove Google Drive from the navigation pane then the blue syncing icon overlay comes back.
