Ability to sync dot-files
I'm a developer and my projects are synced to box, and I need, when I access my projects on another computer, to retrieve all my files, including my "dot" files (such as .env, .gitignore, .editorconfig, etc.). Only, now "dot" files are not synced, as explained on this page:
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195433. This is a problem, so it would be nice to be able to manually force certain files to sync or to have them automatically sync.3 votes -
Provide a way to remove duplicate files throughout a folder and all sub folders
I have a user who copied all the content in multiple folders some how and created duplicate files everywhere in the folder structure. All the duplicate files had a (1) at the end but also had a few files with (email address) at the end as well. Not sure why the (email address) showed up at the end, over the (1).
Never the less, I need a way as an admin or even a user to search for all duplicate files, within a folder/sub folders, and allow me to find all files with *(1) and provide me the list…

Identify files that fail to sync using Box Sync
In my experience - Box Sync on Windows 10 - I often run into messages "N files could not be synced" - usually because a Mac user saved a file with a name Windows can't handle. If it's only one file, it tells me the name, but if it's more than one, it only shows the number. I would go into Box to rename the files - however, I cannot find any way to identify the offending one. Would love an option on Box Sync that showed the set of files that are throwing sync errors.

Enhance user experience for searching files with tag
As legal department, we manage contract documents using tag but when we search files filtering with them, user experience is not intuitive when I follow steps described below.
- search a keyword filtering with tag
- change the keyword on search box
- filter for tag set in 1 is reset and disappeared
Also, we would like to search file filtering with tag without any keywords in the search box as populating keyword is currently a must to start to search unlike Metadata, which is also inconvenient.
33 votesSearching for tags without a keyword is now possible in the Box web app.
Tag filter is not reset when changing the keyword.

Support for .bak files through Box Drive.
Currently .bak files in Box are not exposed in the Box folder in Explorer, and putting a .bak file in your Box folder will result in a "problem file"

Bring back previous method of highlighting files
Having to click on the checkbox to the right of files is FAR less intuitive than being able to click anywhere on the body of the file "line." It was much easier and more efficient to be able to just click and shift/ctrl click to highlight multiple files.

Ability to exclude syncing certain files by type.
Box Drive - exclude syncing certain files by type. I use several software that use this lock file approach and the lock files should NEVER be synced. (sometimes for size reasons, sometimes for frequent uploads and deletes)

Enable selecting files stored in Box directly in File Requests
Currently, file request links only allow you to upload files from local folders.
This is convenient if you use Box Drive, but users who rely solely on the browser have to download files from Box and then re-upload them via the file request link.I would like the file selection for file requests to allow choosing not only folders on the PC, but also files already stored in Box directly from the browser interface.
〈ファイルリクエストでBox内ファイルを直接選択可能にしたい〉
現在、ファイルリクエストリンクでは、ローカルフォルダ内のファイルしかアップロードできません。
Box Drive を利用している場合は便利ですが、ブラウザのみを利用するユーザーは、いったん Box からファイルをダウンロードしてから、ファイルリクエストリンクへ再度アップロードする必要があります。ファイルリクエストでアップロードするファイルの選択時に、PC上のフォルダだけでなく、ブラウザ画面から Box 内に保存されているファイルも直接選べるようにしてほしいです。

Confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity
When users copy (Ctrl+C) files on Box Drive, and then paste (Ctrl+V) the files on their desktops, it is almost doing the same thing as "Downloading" or "Copying."
However, neither the above are recorded in User Activity.
We would like to be able to confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity.7 votes -
Revert to former UX for selecting files/folders (no more check boxes)
In order to select multiple files or folders in the Box Web App you now have to use the checkboxes which are only visible when you hover over the file/folder all the way to the right.
Previously, you could select multiple files and folders by clicking on the file or folder icon on the far left, and didn’t have to bother with checkboxes. The suggestion is to revert to the former UX for selecting files/folders

Review files marked for offline
Allow a user to quickly review all files/folders they have marked for offline use to make sure it's still needed.
When a user is remote or in the current covid-19 'work from home' doctrine, the ability to have better control over what's being downloaded is more important than ever.
