I've been using rclone to mirror a local drive with a shared drive on Google Drive. It works fine, my command line works perfectly. The issue I'm having i s that every week or so rclone needs to be re-authenticated with a new token. I'm not sure why this is, but it kinda sucks because I run things automatically using .bat and .vbs files and I cannot trust that rclone is being run if it keeps needing to be re-authenticated. Has anyone else experienced this? What causes it? Any solutions?

Thx.
