Hi Santosh Sir,
Thanks a lot for your reply and perfect solution as usual. But the problem is not solved yet as the "Turn Offline On" button is not highlighted to switch. This is the issue. I have got these settings already but unable to switch the button as you can see in the attached image.
Is there any other way to do it, please suggest.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks and Regards
Khalid
Hi Khalid,
As per screenshot, Ambuj has already enabled it as offline document in same computer. That's why its showing grayed to you.
Possible in Google Drive only one user can mark it as offline at a time on same machine.
Please check.
Hi Sir,
Yes, you are right but still, I am not able to use it offline.
Hi Khalid,
Please see below, if it helps you.

Multiple Chrome Profiles
You are probably just fine getting your Google Drive working on your default Chrome profile to work on offline docs, just as I was for quite some time. The problem is that when I tried to enable offline docs for my personal Google Drive documents, as well as my work docs, the Google Drive system did not allow it. Chrome only allows one offline sync per Chrome profile. To fix this problem you will need to create an additional Chrome Profile on your browser ( i.e. create a mode with a different browser icon like the one with the Ninja in this blog’s screen shot ), and then enable Offline Docs in your Google Drive while in the correct profile.
To add additional profiles to Chrome go to the menu ( ) option in the top right corner of your Chrome browser and select “Settings”. Scroll down to the “Users” section and choose “Add new user.” Once you have added a profile correctly your Users section should look something like this:
Switching Between Profiles
To switch between profile simply click the icon for your current profile in the top right of the browser and choose the profile you wish to use. Once selected, a new browser window will open with that profile enabled.
Hi Sir,
Thanks for sharing this solution, I have tried and it is working and my problem is solved.
Thanks a lot.
