  1. Change save behavior for users with read-only access (Viewer)

    Change to save to desktop instead of Box folder and/or change prompt that file cannot be uploaded to appear after a longer interval or display as a problem file

    Our user is extremely annoyed by the prompt telling them the file cannot be uploaded repeatedly (every 3 seconds).

  3. Removed cached files when file uploaded and closed

    We use a Citrix system and would like to reduce the number of cached files e have stored after using Box Edit. We would like the cached file to be deleted after the user logs out

  4. Add installer flag to disable first launch after install

    Admins deploying Box Drive may want to push out Box Drive to users who are currently using their machine and do not want to alarm users with Box Drive suddenly appearing post-install.

    Add an installer flag admins can use to disable the post-install launch. Box Drive will auto-launch at the user's next login

  10. Prompt users that Hidden/system files will be ignored/deleted.

    Unsyncing folders that have ignored items (hidden, system files) will delete the items without prompting users.

    Some users had files intentionally marked as Hidden. They lost their files when they unsynced a folder that contained these files.

  12. Relaunch Box Drive After Auto Update

    These updates do not notify users when done. Can this be an enhancement so users know when to start Box again?

  13. Increase number of files shown in "Recents" section when opening files via Box for Office

    When opening a files from Word/Excel/PowerPoint via the Box for Office extension, only the last 3 previously accessed files are listed.

    We would like to increase the number of files shown in "Recents" section to improve accessibility to frequently used files.

  14. Control when/how Box Drive updates are deployed

    End users don't have local admin rights, so IT has to frequently add the new installers to JAMF and SCCM policies

  15. Add a safe guard/warning for items deleted in local Box Sync folder noting they will also be removed from the Web App

    Currently dragging items out or deleting them from the Box Sync folder removes them in the cloud. To my knowledge, there is a warning window when deleting collaborated content, but none for personal content. Please add this.

  16. Manage external collaborators en masse.

    Some Ricardo users have over 50 external collaborators on a single folder. They cannot find any facility to download a list of current collaborators or a way to change the permissions of multiple users en masse.

  18. Ability to preview previously cached files by using spacebar in mac finder

    When navigating through files in Mac Finder, if you select a file and hit spacebar it will pop open a preview.

    Since Box Sync supports this one would think if a file has been previously opened and cached locally by Box Drive, it would also be supported but it doesn't
