prevent file download to local drive for editor
We would like to have the ability to prevent a user with editor access from being able to download the shared folder content.
According to https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/13404788095507-Restrict-download-access, it seems not possible.Our goals are:
- Allow them to create files/folder, and to edit them from within the Box drive.
- Prevent them from downloading the files into their local drive and take it with them.As a security measure of data loss prevention.

Make external folders more obvious in Box Drive and Box Web
Currently internal and external folders are comingled in Box. Although collections can help organise data in the web app, for those who predominantly use Box Drive this could potentially lead to a DLP issue, particularly where the internal and external folders have nearly identical names. In both Box Drive and Box Web it would be great to be able to choose your own colour coding for these folders e.g. anything external showing red, or the ability to group all of your external folders under one main EXTERNAL folder.

Automatic Size All Columns to Fit for Box Drive
It would be great if all columns in the box drive could be automatically expanded so that file names are not cut off. This feature is available in another product that we used.

Boolean search function to be applicable to tags
Would love to use my Box as a Digital Asset Manager but the tag system really needs a boolean search function.
Boolean searching is used to help find search results faster and with more precision. Boolean searching uses operators: words like AND, OR, and NOT.
We might have to take pour storage else where due the cost of having both a Box account and a DAM.

Bookmark URL
It would be nice if “Bookmark” type files were compatible with Windows URL files. Indeed, I have Box Drive installed on my PC and I cannot open URL files from my PC because the extension is not compatible.
Sincerely,
Evann
Bonjour,
Il serait bien que les fichiers de type "Signet" soit compatible avec les fichers URL de windows. En effet, j'ai Box Drive installé sur mon PC et je ne peut ouvrir les fichiers URL depuis mon pc car l'extension n'est pas compatible.
Cordialement,
Ewann

Manage Box Drive folders that sync with the Box.com - I have to uninstall Box Drive from all of my devices
Because I cannot select which folders to sync from Box.com, I cannot use Box Drive which makes going back to One Drive extremely appealing.
This seems like such basic functionality and it's very disappointing that Box didn't provide it - and actually took it away when moving from Box Sync.
My idea is for Box Drive to provide the same basic functionality that Box Sync had and One Drive and Google Drive and Dropbox have.

Make an option to turn off the warning "Confirm Removal From This Mac"
I drag-and-drop files onto Box all day long, and every file I move I get the warning "Confirm Removal From This Mac". It would be nice to have the option to turn this warning off.

Allow Users to 'Remove' all files from their BOX Drive as a right-click command
It would be nice, instead of logging out of BOX Drive on my personal computer to 'remove' all files on my personal device (so anything that was cached or downloaded). Instead of having to 'log out' of the BOX drive app.

Gap in deleting a file being locked between WebApp and Box Drive
In WebApp, collaborators don't have trash menu against the locked file, meaning collaboration cannot delete it during being locked. However, they are able to remove the locked file from their drive and leave an error in problem items. This deletion can only be done within Box Drive and the file isn't actually deleted. After removing the file lock, Box Drive will make it effective on Box. This can lead the users to create a same item before removing the file lock, and edit.

Updating versions from Box Drive seems to be critically broken
Saving over files in box drive used to update cloud with a version, it seems this is being ignored, and cannot be trusted when checking if this update is committed to the cloud. Things have gone seriously wrong with Box Drive integration every since macOS Ventura upgrade.

I want to share only the necessary folders and files on the BOX drive
Since it is troublesome to access BOX.com, I usually access and edit the necessary folders and files from the BOX drive, but it would be convenient to be able to display only the necessary folders and files. Currently, when you open a folder with "Windows + E", all the folders and files in "All files" of BOX.com are displayed on the BOX drive, but you do not access all of these, and you can save files that are accessed infrequently. I think you should check BOX.com to confirm.
I think it would be useful to have options such as "Share…2 votes -

Configuring the Default Box Drive Folder Location
In the latest version of Box Drive and OS it is no longer possibly to change the file path to a shared folder. This is causing many linking issues for my team as we work within shared files. Would love for this to be reconsidered again and put it the next box update.

Pause and Resume Uploads or downloads to or from Box
The ability to Pause Downloads + Uploads so that Resource intensive tasks on other software can be carried out on a single computer/device without being slowed down by Box Transferring large amounts of data to/from the device to cloud. The ability to resume Downloads + Uploads after resource intensive tasks are completed.
Not everyone/every company has the budget to have expensive "workhorse" computers or Gigabit internet (not to mention a lot of places dont even have gigabit internet. (Im lucky enough to have access to both where I work and I STILL run into issues from time to time)

Ability to zoom-in/out by fingers on the touchscreen of my laptop PC.
