So, I installed "Backup and Sync" (also known asthe replacement for deprecated "Google Drive for PC") and created an MS Word Doc in the drive folder. I understand that I can edit this word doc from any PC where I have set up and synced my docs using "Backup and Sync".

But what if I want to edit this word doc (saved in my Google Drive from any other PCs that don't have "Backup and Sync"?

I tried to open the doc using online application. It made a copy of the document and changes were saved to the copy only. Is there any way to sync back those changes to the original word document?

The real name of the sync software is not "Google Drive for PC" but "Backup and Sync"
