Enable us to tag folders with specific colors, to indicate whether they're populated or not.
I would like to be able to tag folders (or choose their literal color, green red blue etc) to indicate whether or not they're complete, incomplete, populated, etc. My company often uses Box to sort invoices and W9 forms for contractors we hire on individual projects, and tracking down all that paperwork can be tedious. If I can, for example, color a folder Grey if it's empty, Yellow if it has an invoice but is missing a W9, and Green if it's fully populated, it'll save me the trouble of having to manually enter each folder and check.

Ability to filter recent files by file extension
It would be great to be able to filter files in the Recent Files section by extension, access date, etc. Currently you can't sort anything. My use case was easy. I knew I had access one Excel file one week before but couldn't remember the name nor the real date. instead of scrolling in the whole list, I could have selected "Excel / spreadsheet file" to see only these files for a faster search.

Ability to preview contents of the files contained in the zip file
Box can list all the folders and files contained in the zip file, however it doesn't allow us to preview the contents of each files contained in the zip file.
We need to download the zip file to preview the contents.It would be better to have ability to preview the contents of the each files so that we can complete our work within Box.

Allow users to click outside of the Refresh File pop-up box without having to click Cancel or Ok
Currently you can't do anything on the screen without clicking one of the options on the Refresh File pop-up box that appears after editing. 90% of the time, I'm trying to leave that screen and I don't need to see the updated version because I just edited it. If that box could disappear if I click anywhere on the screen, that would be ideal.

Box for Office Logs
Log files are stored with annoying date stamp format. Log files should be stored like BoxExcelLogDate.txt rather than BoxExcelLog.txtdate.

Box Uploader should be also listed as the Box File Owner
It is frustrating to see that the Owner of a Box Folder structure, is listed automatically as the Document Owner. Can this be changed to reflect the Owner as the person who uploaded the file instead. So if there are any questions on files, it goes to the right person, rather than to a Box Folder Owner who actually would have to field and re-direct as appropriate which is not ideal.

Too many clicks to share files + see download activity!
I'm finding it inconvenient that, to share a link once it's uploaded in the web interface, I have to click "Create & Copy Shared Link", then click "Link settings", then click "Copy", then click "Save", then click the X to close the window. That's five clicks just to grab the direct link. It may not seem like much, but it adds up - and I could have sworn it was a faster, more efficient process in earlier versions of Box years ago.
Not only that, but the recent change to the layout of the web interface in terms of seeing…

Select and Download Individual Files from Zip File Preview
The ability to Preview Folders within a zip file exists, however, you cannot click on individual files. It would be nice to be able to select the individual files from the zip file preview and then download the selected files.

Drag and drop files on Box Drive
I can't drag and drop to move a file as easily as on google drive
The all files folder should automatically expand when I plan to drop a file to move it to.1 vote -
Updated date and Uploaded date are not the same thing
We would like to be able to retain the file updated date or modified date during file upload. Right now the updated date is the date file was uploaded which is not really the updated date and time from the local machine.
This is very critical as updated date is very important to end users when migrating or uploading files to Box. Imaging thousands of files uploaded to Box all have the same uploaded date under Updated date column.
Thank you!

Box closes when close an app on windows web
When opening an app, the close button on the top right of the app page, closes the entire page and exit Box (e.g., if Document or excel sheet is opened from Box Drive).
It would be better if the close button, closes the app and falls back to the main Box drive page.1 vote -

Add themes to folders
I wanted to deliver a folder of images to a client and they've asked me to theme or brand the folder so they can forward to their guests. This would be great to be able to do.

Location on Mobile App
For Audit purposes, it would be good if the BOX mobile app had access to location while using the App, so the geography report included the location of mobile app users.

Folder path and Page numbers missing from Bin (Box Admin)
Box Admins will regularly view Box accounts of a user, and the user's Bin. Without the Folder Path displayed (which should be SORTABLE and FILTER on), it is difficult to isolate content that was deleted from a specific location.
Instead it is necessary to run a Box Report of a folder, which does include the folder path, then sort the Bin by Updated column, scroll through multiple pages to find content before restoring (hopefully) the correct one(s)
The Bin should display the folder path for each row (where blank Details column is), and be able to SORT that column and…

Provide Sort and Filters in Box Admin Content Search and results - should be standard
Box Admin / Content - Search: 1) should have filter option to choose search 'only by file or foldername' (ie exclude results where search string only in Updated by;
