  2. (Box Alternate domain) link from Box Drive

    Looking forward an option to setup Box Drive to generate shared links with the (Box Alternate domain) URL by default.
    We heavily work with factories in China and for them to access shared files, we need to modify URL from "box.com" to (Box Alternate domain) manually everytime when we generate links from Box Drive.
    Note: we know we can generate (Box Alternate domain) links from web platform when we login via (Box Alternate domain). We are specifically looking for a feature to setup Box Drive links to be (Box Alternate domain)

  4. Box Drive - Add Support for .pst Files

    While .pst files are visible from Box's web client, they are not visible from Box Drive. This results in an inability to connect .pst files from Box to Outlook, and is preventing us from rolling out Box across our enterprise.

  5. Box Drive status bar icon

    When clicking the "box" icon pinned to the windows status bar, it opens up a search pop-up. Using Box Sync, clicking the icon pinned to the status bar would open up a new windows explorer window.

    With box drive, you have to right-click the icon, then click "open box folder". I would like the option to change this to function like Box Sync did.

  6. Change Box Drive Storage Location

    I want to be able to move the storage location of Box Drive to something other than the C drive. The space is limiting. Most days accessing data from Box is not an issue but on days the internet goes down at the office or there is a power outage all work comes to a halt without access to files. I can't make all of my files available offline with Box Drive storing to the C drive. It would be nice to be able to have all of my files available in case of unforeseen circumstances. I would…

  7. box drive

    Preemptively cache your folder directories.
    Some departments have a large volume of folders and files. During first time of loading a folder, the contents appear blank and after 5 seconds content shows up. Sometimes a person needs to go manually refresh the folder list to see the contents. This gives the first impression that Box Drive is slow. Is there a way to preemptively cache the folder directories? We do not mark any contents available offline and would like to keep it that way. Once the folder is listed the first time, all future browsing of the folder is fast.

  8. Box Drive performance

    Drive is unstable and crashes quite easily when many items are copied. We hope Drive be robust and stable enough for batch/powershell scripted copy/move/etc.

  10. BoxSign request from Box Drive

    It would be nice to send a box sign document straight from Box Drive instead of logging into the web app and doing it from there. We mostly use the Box drive in our company.

  11. File Explorer Search Capabilities on Box Drive

    Box Sync allowed for File Explorer searching. Box Drive does not.

    This is a HUGE negative.

    When will this be fixed?

  12. Backup user folders to Box Drive

    To make the capture and backup of user content on our users' local systems easier, Box Drive should have an option to automatically select and sync the contents of user folders on both Macs and Windows computers (e.g., Desktop, Documents, etc.).

  13. Box drive won't show files that don't sync

    We have many department users uploading files to Box via Box drive but sometimes Box drive won't upload all the files due to a certain discrepancy. There is no error on Box drive and the only way to find this is to check for the number files on Box web as compared to the number of files on Box drive for the particular folder. This is very concerning and Box drive should either show the list of files not uploaded to Box or shouldn't allow users to upload files using Box drive. I hope there will be a fix…

  14. View in Box Drive from Box.com

    Our team primarily uses Box Drive. When we send Box.com links around, it is very cumbersome to then have to navigate to the file in Box Drive if you need to use Box Drive to access it.

    A button should be added to the web version of Box.com to "View in Box Drive" which would then launch the Finder (Mac) or Explorer (Windows) location of that file in Box Drive.

  16. Box Drive Integration with Windows Information Protection

    Some users want to protect all or part of the folders on Box Drive with Windows Information Protection (WIP) as a corporate area, but Box Drive do not currently have direct integration.
    So, they want to be able to cooperate Box Drive and WIP.

  17. Box Drive Cloud Files: Selecting the Cache Storage

    With the release of Box Drive Cloud Files, the specification for where the Box Drive cache is stored has been changed:
    Traditional Box Drive: C:\Users<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Box\Box\cache
    Box Drive Cloud Files: Same folder as Box Drive
    In our company, we have changed the Box Drive mount location and are operating with a reduced capacity on that mounted drive. Due to the above specification change, upload errors caused by insufficient space are occurring.
    It is not realistically possible to re-image all corporate users’ PCs and change their storage capacities. A forced migration to Box Drive Cloud Files…

  18. See and share full path from Box Drive

    A function that enables to share Box Drive location/path between users.

    When using Box Drive on a daily bases, it is inconvenient that the user needs to open the link on the browser once to identify the specific location/folder path.

    It would improve to shorten the work flow if the users can see the full path from Box Drive so that they don’t have to go through the process to open box.com.

  19. Box Drive: Safe Column Width Fixation

    The default column width is too narrow when viewing in Box Drive, and it is not possible to apply column width locking. I would like to request an improvement to this feature.

  20. Box Drive Tour and Updates

    We have added Box Drive to our VDI image. At each login, a user logs into Box Drive as if it was the first time when logging into a VDI computer. We'd like the option to be able to skip the Box Tour as it doesnt need to repeat every time.

    Additionally, we'd like to disable Box Drive updates as we'd want to do them on a controlled basis on the image.
