I don't have MS Office installed so it's pretty annoying to have to upload the file to Google Drive every time I need to open one.
Is it possible to set up Google Drive to open my .docx
, .pptx
, etc., files by default, as for Google Docs files?

You have several options:
Download and install Google Drive for PC/MAC. Your drive files will sync to your desktop where those program defaults will supersede. I.E. xlxs
files will open in Excel, docx
will open in Word etc.
