technical support
How about someone to talk to that can address technical questions. It is almost impossible to get someone to help me with a problem of file transfer and simply opening a file once it is in box.

prevent saving files on local disk to folders that the user does not have access to.
Prevent saving files on local disk to folders that the user does not have access to. At present just a warning pops up but non-tech-savvy users don't know what to do with that, and the errant files can only be found by logging in as that user on that particular machine. If there was some way to not allow invalid local saves it would be very helpful!

install and syncronize box in a chosen folder
I am windows user. I wanted to install box and syncronize my box files in my local D: drive, because my C: drive is full. Surprisingly, the installation process of Box app does not provide such an option (of selecting which drive to install Box to). It by default is installed on C: drive . This is very insane. Windows Users can choose to install which drive to install any app.
My C: drive is full, and I want to syncronise everything both in cloud and in local computer, but i cannot do so because C: drive is full, and…

Assistance Required for Two-Factor Authentication Setup on Box
I have received a shared folder invitation from our customer, but I am unable to access the contents because it requires setting up an authentication app.
When I attempt to proceed with the two-step verification process, I am prompted to scan a QR code and input a 6-digit authentication code. However, I am unsure how to complete this setup and gain access to the shared content.
Could you please provide me with step-by-step guidance on how to properly set up the authentication app and access the folder?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Is it possible to add a setting that periodically sends pop-up notifications when something is on hold or when there is a synchronization error? (It would be ideal to be able to select ON/OFF)

Use status field in addition to overlay in Windows File Explorer
This would allow users to see status icons for each folder and file without relying on the file/folder icon overlays that Windows limitations make problematic. OneDrive uses the status field in addition to overlays. Box should, too.

BoxDrive Moving files between folders with different owners using
BoxDrive When using to move files in different folders with different folder owners, the file owner cannot be changed and an error occurs. This can be done using the Box browser, so I would like to be able to do the same with BoxDrive.

Box Drive should ignore files would be in a hidden folder/directory

Improve Confirm Box Move prompt text to clarify
When a large folder operation is triffered (eg when a box folder with large number of subfolders and documents is moved or copied), a popup appears as follows:
Title: Confirm Bulk Move; Box logo; text: "You moved 'folder-name' with 'number' items to the 'folder-name' . Due to the large volume of items this will take several hours to sync to Box. Do you want to continue?"I would suggest this should change to make it clearer as the use of present and past tense, and button descriptions make it unclear whether the move is already completed and can be undone,…

Enhanced File/Folder Deletion in Box Drive
Proposal: Allow users to delete shared files and folders directly through Box Drive (File Explorer) and ensure that this action also removes collaborators' access.
Current Limitation: At present, users must delete shared files and folders via the web interface on box.com. This is because Box Drive mirrors the contents of the box.com web app account, and deletions made in Box Drive do not remove collaborator access.
Benefits of Implementation:
Improved User Experience: Streamlining the deletion process will make it more convenient for users, eliminating the need to switch between Box Drive and the web interface.
Enhanced Security: Ensuring that collaborator…

Display a dialog to confirm the intended operation.（操作が本意かを確認するダイアログ表示）
I often accidentally move or delete files and folders in BoxDrive. To help prevent these mistakes, it would be beneficial to implement an option that displays a confirmation dialog before moving or deleting items. This would be a great help to many users.
