This is an incredibly important feature that is sorely missed. My school requires me to use Box Drive and I have begun to use Box for my everyday files as well. I currently have over 50GB in Box, and my C: Drive is now almost completely full due to how many files I save offline. Please implement this feature asap!

The fact that this is not possible is why i still use box sync rather than box drive

Most people have rather small C drives, not being able to change the cache location makes me consider your competitors.

we use this on box sync and box drive has so many advantages over box sync but this issue is holding us up. we really want/need to switch, please add this feature!

Box is awful without this must have setting. I have no option but to uninstall it.

OK, for an "enterprise" level program, this basic functionality is almost critical.

This trivial to implement feature should be moved to top priority.

Any change on the status of this feature? Pretty big oversight!

Without this feature, Box Drive is unusable. Common usage is to be dedicate C to system storage and another drive for data storage. We have 100's GB in shared storage, so this would max out C drive in short order.

Not sure why this was dropped moving form Box Sync to Box Drive. We'll be going back until this is fixed.

Only 264 votes... I assure you BOX that this is because people haven't found this post. It's a MUST have feature. Please implement.

How can it be 30 months later and this STILL has not been addressed? As has been mentioned previously, this is basic functionality for managing cloud storage on a remote device. Please tell us, oh wizards of Box, what it is we need to do to get this necessary upgrade completed soon.

Imagine having a C drive that is just for your server OS, and a D drive that's a separate HD for data, and every time you want to backup many gigabytes of files from D to Box online, it first has to copy the files to the Box cache on the C drive... Don't the developers understand how FRUSTRATING this is?! :/

Like, please :(

This should also be possible in macOS.

This ain't rocket sience and only amateurs leave this function out of a program like this

Completely agree, I have an entire separate cache drive for this.

I have to go back to Box Sync, as my main drive is D. C is SSD and only for Apps. D is 1TB and for data.

I have resorted to having both box and box sync installed because you can have box sync have the folders you need on an external...this is a horrible work around and previously you could just use symbolic links to move your folders over. I am a video editor and box has become more of a pain in the A$$ then a solution as my projects are in TB's and hey I can not make the system hard drive bigger ...that is a bogus solution!

If you're here because you want to change the mount point of the Box drive so it's not your C drive, the solution is not too hard to do yourself and it's working for me in Windows 10.
1. Exit Box Drive.
2. Open the Registry Editor (e.g. search "registry" from the start menu) and hit yes to let it modify your computer.
3. Navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Box\Box
4. Create a New > String Value; name it CustomBoxLocation and set its value to a path on the different drive you want - e.g. D:\Box
5. Close the Registry Editor and start Box Drive

Thanks to Luke Johnson writing in the wrw.is blog linked in a comment below.

It's totally ridiculous that you can't change that, the Box Drive app install location, or the cache location easily. Amateur hour.

This feature is really, really needed.

As many have said this really need to be implemented - we are a 3DP company we move hundreds of gigs between us - its bad enough that just changing the location of the absolute files requires a registry edit, i mean its like 1985 all over again, but that the cache remains on the C drive and eats up hundreds of gigs is ridiculous. Why pay hundreds a month for this?
