Switch to Cloud File API for Drive to solve the Icons not showing issue
Like many users I found that the status icons disappeared in Explorer after starting an addition cloud service on Windows 11. This issue is well documented here: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195513-Icons-Do-Not-Appear-In-Box-Drive-or-Box-Sync-on-Windows
I would like to suggest utilizing the newer "cloud files API" provided by Microsoft that is used by OneDrive to move the icons to a status category rather than icons on the file thumbnails/icons.
The documentation can be found here; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/cfapi/build-a-cloud-file-sync-engine
Thank you for your consideration.

I want to be able to show or hide the content displayed in the root folder
Since you are invited to many folders in the company, a large number of folders will appear in the root folder (folder/0).
I want a function that allows me to show and hide so that only the folders I need are displayed.タイトル：
ルートフォルダに表示されているコンテンツの表示・非表示を切り替えられるようにしたい

I want you to be able to add folders that are not owned or co-owned to Box Hubs

Increased file limit for Box AI for Hubs
Currently, Box AI for Hubs is limited to 10,000 files per hub and 1,000,000 files combined across all hubs in an tenant.
For use cases such as distributing hubs on a departmental basis, this number is low, so we would like the limit to be relaxed.Box AI for Hubsのファイル数制限を緩和してほしい
現在Box AI for Hubsを利用するには、1つのHubで10,000ファイル、テナント内すべてのHubで合計1,000,000ファイルまでが上限となっています。
部署単位でHubを配るといったユースケースでは、この数値では少ないため制限を緩和してほしい。61 votes -
Section Limit on Hub Pages
Currently, there is a 90-section limit for each Hub page. We are concerned about letting users manage their hubs freely because they often don't keep track of the number of sections. Based on my validation, the frequency of this issue is unacceptable. Could you please increase this limit?

Adding direct links dialog to the shared links dialog popup
There really needs to be a way that the direct links dialog could be moved to the Shared Links dialog box so that you don't have to have multiple click to just to get a direct link to an image file. At the current time, it's a lengthy process to create direct image links. See the attached files and please fix this!

Custom Poster Frame for Video Thumbnails
When a video is uploaded to Box the preview thumbnail is automatically pulled from a frame 10% into the video. For media and entertainment clients this can be a challenge because that frame is often an unflattering still of a talent mid-speech or in an awkward pose. That's the first thing clients see when they log in to review a file.
Platforms like YouTube and Vimeo have a great implementation of this where you can pick a specific frame or upload a custom image as the thumbnail. It would be wonderful to see something similar in Box.
On the technical…

Box Drive installation improvements
While I am submitting this for Box Drive, I think this should apply to all .msi installers from Box. Is there a way that we can see the version info in the file Properties - > Details? I know that .msi installation makes this trickier than .exe but it is difficult to determine if the website Download link gave me the most recent version or not.
There have been instances where the download from the website (https://www.box.com/resources/downloads#:~:text=Download%20Box%20Drive%20for%20Windows%20(64%20bit) gave me an older version than a user who had Box Drive installed with auto-updates enabled.

Make Box Shuttle available to Business Plan Co-admins
Please make Box Shuttle available to co-admins with Business plans. Currently it is only available to co-admins with Business Plus or higher. It is quite common for consultants to have the co-admin role rather than admin when working with clients.

Allow admins and folder owners to control visibility of the "Email All" button
We would like the ability to control the visibility of the "Email All" button at both the Enterprise level and the folder level.
Proposed behavior:
Enterprise admins can enable or disable the "Email All" button globally via the Admin Console.
At the folder level, co-owners and above (including owners) can toggle the visibility of the button for that specific folder.
Why this matters:In our organization, senior executives are often added as collaborators on folders. The "Email All" button makes it easy for any collaborator to send a message to all members of a folder — including those executives — which…1 vote -
Add Date Field to Box Forms
We would like a date field type with a date picker added to box forms. We are currently using the "Number" field type for dates, but are getting formatting discrepancies. There are times we input information using a form that was from a different day so being able to select the correct day and controlling formatting is important. Thank you.

Open read-only in BoxDrive
Users with viewer privileges are not allowed to update files, but in the case of files that are updated simply by opening them, such as .xls files, an error will occur each time the file is opened in BoxDrive.
Is it possible to open files from BoxDrive in read-only mode?-in Japanese-
ビューアー権限のユーザーはファイルを更新することができないようになっているが、.xlsのように開くだけで更新されてしまうファイルの場合、BoxDriveでファイルを開くと都度エラーが発生してしまう。
読み取り専用状態でBoxDriveからファイルを開けるようにしてほしい。31 votesBox Drive doesn’t currently provide a built-in “read-only open” option. Instead, whether a file opens in read-only mode depends on the application (Excel, Word, etc.) and the operating system.
Here are a few possible workarounds:
- Download a local copy and open it outside of Box Drive.
- Use Box Preview in the web app, which always opens in read-only mode.
- Adjust application settings (e.g., in Excel you can configure certain files to always open as read-only).

Shield - Download and Navigate to a file directly from a Malicious Content Shield Alert
For the Malicious Content rule, it should be possible to download a malicious file directly from a Shield Alert for sandboxing without having to search for it.
Also, an admin who has Content Manager access should be able to click a button within the alert and navigate to the file in the Content Manager to manage it.

Feature Request to Hide/Show Default BoxNotes Sidebar
Content: When opening BoxNotes for the first time, the sidebar is displayed and open.
Users who are not familiar with Box operations do not know how to hide the sidebar, which narrows the screen and makes it difficult to grasp the overall structure of the note, reducing work efficiency.
We would like to request the implementation of a feature that allows the tenant side to set the default sidebar to show/hide.(日本語)
件名：デフォルトのBoxNotesのサイドバーを非表示/表示にできる機能要望
内容：初めてBoxNotesを開いた場合は、サイドバーが表示されて開かれます。
Box操作に慣れていないユーザーはサイドバーを非表示にする方法がわからず、画面が狭くなるためノート全体の構造が把握しづらく作業効率が低下します。
テナント側でデフォルトのサイドバーを表示/非表示に設定できる機能実装を希望します。2 votes -
