The program supports sync for "my drive" but aparently not for "my computers"
is there a way to do this or will it be posible in the future?

Apparently Google doesn't allow third-party software to access "My Computers" for some reason: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64719294/google-drive-api-no-way-to-list-entries-under-computers
I'm not sure what the point of "My Computers" is anyway, when there is regular "My Drive".
Apparently "My Computers" is supposed to be for backups with Google's own "Backup & Sync" tool. But it seems you can just as easily create a subfolder in "My Drive" for the exact same task and then sync with FreeFileSync.

According to:

Backup and sync is completely useless and you might as well use Drive
