  2. Add remote app support functionality like OneDrive is currently offering

    OneDrive now offers support for starting in background for RemoteApp. I tried the same regkey for Box but it didn't work, can the same functionality be added for Box Drive?

  3. Request to improve synchronization speed between Box Web UI and BoxDrive"

    Request to improve synchronization speed between Box Web UI and BoxDrive"

    We would like to request an improvement in the synchronization speed between Box Web UI and BoxDrive so that they can be synchronized within 5 seconds.
    Our investigation of the synchronization speed is based on the following items.

    Pattern (3) Upload to Box Drive and check the screen update on WebUI: Result: No automatic update even after waiting for more than 5 minutes.
    Pattern (5) Delete the file on WebUI and check the update on Box Drive: Result: 20 seconds
    Pattern 6: Delete the file on the Box Drive…

  5. Box Drive performance improvement request when using VDI

    The VDI is experiencing operational delays when using Box Drive, and this is affecting our business.
    It was found that the delay was caused by a large number of disk I/Os.
    We checked the Box Drive logs and found that Box was reflecting 1,000 to 2,000 operation logs on Box to each user every morning.
    Since the above operations occur simultaneously for all users, there is a large load on the infrastructure.
    Please improve performance.

    「VDI利用時におけるBox Drive性能改善リクエスト」

    Box Drive利用時のVDIで操作遅延が発生しており業務影響が出ております。
    操作遅延の要因としては多数のディスクI/Oによって発生していることが判明しており、
    Box Driveのログを確認した所、Boxから毎朝1000~2000のBox上での操作ログを各ユーザーへ反映されていました。
    上記操作が全てのユーザで同時に発生する為、インフラストラクチャに大きな負荷が掛かっています。
    性能改善をお願いします。

  6. Unify move and copy behavior between BoxDrive and the Web browser.

    There is a detrimental effect caused by the fact that BoxDrive and the Web browser have different specifications for the operation of "move and copy," which is a basic operation of Box (it is actually upload and download).
    In particular, the fact that Shield's Access Policy and Classification Labels "maintain the original labels when moved and copied" is a major reason to use that feature.
    However, BoxDrive does not maintain labels, which does not lead to enhanced security or control of usage.
    Since there are many users who use BoxDrive as their main application, we would like to see the…

  8. Show who has locked a file in Box Drive

    In the Webapp you are able to see who has locked a file, in Drive you cannot see this unless you navigate to the web. Heavy Drive users/customers require this information in the Drive UI

  9. Allow Admins to Monitor for Sync Errors

    Currently if there are any sync errors in Box Drive the only way to identify them is for the user to notice the toast notification or click on the Box Drive systray icon. Relying on the end user to report errors is not reliable and almost caused us to lose data going back several years.

    The only way errors are logged is in the Box Drive log files but no one from Box or Box Support is willing to share how those are logged for admins to monitor.

    Box Drive needs to better log any errors encountered so admins can…

  10. Box Online Only

    Admins should be able to decide which groups of users are allowed to use Box Drive versus Box online only. Box Online only would increase security in that users would not be able to download files and would be forced to edit/view files in browser only. This helps tremendously in securing data that contractors need to access.

  11. grant access

    I have a parent folder with many multiple subfolders with additional subfolders. Is it possible to grant different levels of access (i.e. lower level such as Viewer access) despite giving Editor access to the parent folder? If that feature could be included, that would be fantastic. Thanks!

  14. offline files and selective sync

    I would like to see the ability to mark files and folders for local or offline storage. Currently box drive allows for only the folder to be marked offline or downloaded locally. When I don't need to have a file downloaded anymore there is not a way for me to mark them offline. I have tried marking the folder offline but that doesn't work to make the files I want offline. Additionally, this would cause all files that I do want locally to become offline. Dropbox currently has the ability to selectively sync the files and or folders that I…

  18. Video playback stops midway

    When I shared a video using a shared link, some people reported that the video stopped midway through. Is this a Box specification? Is there a maximum size for videos that can be shared? I would like to know if there is a way to share videos without stopping in the middle (or restrictions on video sharing).

    動画を共有リンクで共有したところ、一部の共有先から、動画が途中で止まってしまうと報告を受けた。これはBoxの仕様なのか? 共有できる動画の最大サイズが決まっているとか? 動画を途中で止まらぬように共有できる方法(もしくは動画共有についての制約事項)があれば知りたい。

  20. Getting a "Share a file link" on Win 11 Pro

    We moved to Win 11 Pro. Since then "getting a Box link" to copy and add it to a document been very painful.

    Here is a 1 min video https://somup.com/cZ1QYtEe4S

    SOLUTION: see what DropBox already did, integrating it the Right click mouse click shell.
