  1. 列幅が狭く、変更を固定できない。The column width is abnormally narrow, and changes cannot be fixed.

    BOXドライブをエクスプローラ上で開いたときにファイル名の欄が異常に狭い状態で表示され、手動で直したり幅を再設定しても自動で狭い幅に戻されてしまいます。非常に使い勝手が悪いです。数年前からある不具合で多くの人が報告しているのに、いまだに修正されていないことにも驚きます。

    When opening BOX Drive in Explorer, the file name column displays abnormally narrow.
    Even if I manually adjust it or reset the width, it automatically reverts to the narrow width. This is extremely inconvenient.
    I'm also surprised that this bug has existed for years, has been reported by many people, and still hasn't been fixed.

  2. File Status now showing in Windows File Explorer

    The problem shows up after installing the box app on my Windows pc. In my Windows file explorer, I cannot see the status of my files. I cannot know if the document is already available or needs to be downloaded first before use. And I cannot clear local downloaded file caches to release some space. How can I know the file status?

  3. Search function in file explorer window does not function in BOX DRIVE--FIX THIS PLEASE

    Search function in file explorer window does not function in BOX DRIVE--FIX THIS PLEASE?
    It's soooo bad that my boss will not use drive, reverted to and will only use sync do to the lack of search capability in windows explorer. He threatens frequently to move us to a different platform because of it. It is absolutely unacceptable to not have the file explorer search function with BOX DRIVE work identically to the way it workson BOX Sync

  4. Notifications + Override ability for Folder Owners when a folder is Deleted by a Collaborator

    When in Box Drive, collaborators can inadvertently delete a large folder, even if they don't own that folder. Before the folder is able to be deleted, the owner of the folder should receive a notification with a warning (e.g. Jane Doe is about to delete your files) and the owner should have the ability to override the action. In the case where the Owner is no longer at the company, there should be an Admin warning and ability to override the action.

  6. Account provision based on invitation received.

    Hi
    Case #3378972. Refer this for details.

    When someone in our domain receives an invitation to collaborate in a folder and they don’t yet have a Box account, an account will be provisioned and that user will automatically become a managed user under your enterprise instance. This is some kind of a backdoor account creation which we want to have a control on. We have account approval process where Cost Center managers review and approve the license cost. Need this capability to have a control over this way of account creation.

  7. Share files externally Box Drive

    Allow the 'People with the link' option to be available directly in Box Drive when sharing files externally, so users don't need to switch to the Box Web App.

  8. DOWNLOAD DELETED FILE

    Would like the option to download a deleted file instead on Restoring it. I would like to be able to download to my downloads folder instead of just restoring the file to its original location.

  9. Request for Improvement of BOX Drive Proxy Server Authentication Response Function

    BOX Drive is not working properly in our environment.
    We recognize that BOX Drive is designed to read Pac files, but the communication is succeeding up to the proxy server according to the Pac file.
    However, it seems that it is not able to respond to the authentication response of the proxy server.

    As a result, when we open files in our Office products (Excel and Word) that cannot be opened in a web browser, we have to download the file once from
    BOX.
    This method is not productive for us.

    As a solution, we would like to be able…

  10. Add Support for Python in Excel

    I would like to be able to use Microsoft Excel's new Python integration while stored on Box. I have been told that Python in Excel can only be used on content stored in "secure container[s] on the Microsoft Cloud", such as OneDrive, Azure, Sharepoint, and other Microsoft proprietary resources.

  11. I would love to be able to direct Box Drive to any drive connected to my computer.

    Have the option to choose where Box Drive syncs from not just where it is installed. Instead of the startup drive as default Box Drive location, having the option to choose any drive internal or external drive would be great.

  12. Change default view in folders being shared

    Box defaults to showing files via upload date, please allow the ability to select what the default view is, so that it can be set to file name (ie alphabetically).

    When sharing links to folders with clients, files being shown via upload date looks messy and unprofessional and asking the client to change the view on their side isn't an option or a solution.

  14. Box drive for surface pro

    I have the latest surface pro laptop, but it says box drive is not compatible with this device. I use the drive version heavily for work and prefer not use a different content management software. . Surface pro suggested reaching out to box for support. The model features the Snapdragon X plus (10 core)/ X Elite. Can you provide an update that makes the drive compatible?

  15. We would like to have a setting to control the ability to create shared links in Box Drive.

    Currently, users can right-click on content in Box Drive and generate a shared link from the "Share" menu. We need a way to disable this functionality through administrative settings.

    When creating a shared link from the web, it is possible to confirm that the shared link has been created by an icon,, however, when creating a shared link from BoxDrive, no icon is displayed, making it impossible to know whether a shared link has been created. Therefore, we want to prohibit creating shared links from BoxDrive.

    in Japanese

    BoxDriveで共有リンクを作成できないように制御したい

    BoxDriveでコンテンツを右クリックし、メニューの「共有」から共有リンクを発行することができるが、これを制御する設定ができるようにしてほしい。

    Webから共有リンクを作成する場合は、アイコンによって共有リンクが作成されていることが確認できますが、BoxDriveから共有リンクを作成するとアイコンが表示されず、共有リンクが作成されているかどうかがわからないため、BoxDriveからの共有リンク作成を禁止したい。

  16. I want to be able to bulk rename files and folders within a specified folder

    Bulk renaming files and folders in a specified Box folder though the web interface is a missing feature.

    It would be helpful to be able to do so, as often clients or projects change name and the "CompanyA - content of the folder" or "ProjectA - content of the folder" names need to be renamed as "CompanyB - content of the folder" or "ProjectB - content of the folder".

    When a company or project folder contains hundreds or thousands of names a string command like "rename text *** to text YYY in al files and folder…

  17. Generating/Copying-to-clipboard multiple shared links at once through file explorer

    Egnyte, one of Box's competitors, gives users the ability to select multiple documents in file explorer to then generate their respective shared links all at once. These links (and the document titles) are then copied to the clipboard and can thus be easily distributed.

    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.

  19. For the love of all that is holy. Please add the ability to pause and cancel specific offline items from syncing in the transfer window.

    On a slower wifi connection users need a way to control syncing. The ability to pause, or even cancel offline file from syncing is essential. Dropbox has this functionality. Please catch up.

  20. Display more information in Upload Error message in Box Drive

    It would be helpful to have more information shared in the Upload Error notification that’s displayed for admins when a user tries to upload content to a folder that has run out of storage. It would be helpful for the error message to display information such as account name, email, or login of the user. Currently, if an organization imposes storage quotas for their users, admins will receive this message anytime a user tries to upload content to a full folder. Having more information up front within the error message would save admins time in looking to find who the…
