ABILITY TO CLOSE THE ACTIVITY SIDEBAR ON FILES!!!!!!
GET RID OF THE ACTIVTY BOX ON FILES.
OF OUR ~10,000 FILES ONLY 6 HAVE COMMENTS, SO WHY SHOULD WE ALWAYS HAVE TO HAVE IT OPEN.
WHEN USING TWO OPEN WINDOWS SIDE BY SIDE, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE BOX BECAUSE HALF OF THAT WINDO W IS OVERTAKEN BY THE ACTIVITY SIDEBAR.
YOU USED TO BE ABLE TO CLOSE IT, WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!2 votes -
zip file decompression function
Zip files cannot currently be unzipped in Box.
We would like to add additional functionality because it would reduce the risk of virus infection and improve user convenience by allowing users to unzip Zip files in Box without downloading them.
It would be even better if you could also support Zip files with passwords.14 votes -

Allow 'show folder' button when multiple items are moved/copied
Multiple items are always moved/copied to the same location, therefore a user should be able to navigate to where those items were moved as you can with single file moves/copies.

Independent back-up of files in box
In allot of professions, regulatory requirements require for us to have an independent back up of the files. With today's increased ransomware where they freeze your files, having an independent back-up is a great idea. I propose for Box to have all the files backed-up to a third location where its stored for access if needed. What happens if someone deletes a file by mistake or get all the files deleted. Having a site as back up will be a great idea. Filed could be backed up once a week. And I can tell you I will pay…

Menus are cut off and unusable
When I select one of the files closest to the top of the list, the menu options for "open with" and sometimes "download" are cut off. No matter how I resize my screen I can't reach those menu items. This is an issue across multiple computers, usually using Chrome.

Automatic email response for file request submitter
Would like a feature whereby the person submitting files using Box File Request receives an automatic confirmation email with a customizable message. For example, after the submitter uploads files using the File Request web widget, that person gets a email to the effect of, "Thank you for contacting us. A team member will review your submittal and follow up within 24 hours." The person would be required to provide an email address but not required to have a Box account. Many of our external customers send us application materials using File Request, and then they contact us separately wanting to…

Improve preview window navigation
When checking previews in the Web app the Previous button continuously moves if you go between files that have single or multiple pages. With multiple-page files, a thumbnail pane appears which pushes the Previous arrow around making it a nuisance to preview files smoothly.
Please put the thumbnail pane inside the preview area so the Previous button doesn't jump around. Also, it would be really nice to move between files with the left and right keys on the keyboard, wouldn't it?
Thank you.6 votes -

More efficient way to get metadata on files in search
Search by metadata returns a list of files. That list isn't much use without knowing the metadata it matched. To use Box's metadata for anything past the initial search query that's related to display, each individual search result must be queried for its metadata.
4 votesWe are now in the process of rolling out the new Metadata Query capability to all Box enterprises and expect to be complete by the end of June 2020.

Create one of "Boxファイル" and "Box Files" tabs
In Teams V2 integration, when you add a Box app to a team from the left menu, Apps >Box> Add to Team > Select the team you created > Set Tab, you may see "Boxファイル" and "Box Files" tabs created.
Please improve the functionality so that only one of the tabs is created, as users may be confused as to which tab to use.4 votes -
Request for Early Improvement of Upload Speed for Large Files in BoxZones Environment (excluding the United States).
While improvements have been made in the past regarding upload speed in the NonZones environment, these improvements have not yet been implemented in the Zones environment.
There is no significant difference for small to medium-sized files, but there is a noticeable difference for large files of 1GB or more, with a roughly threefold gap observed in multiple upload speed measurements.
As employees regularly upload large-sized drawings, photos, videos, and other data in their daily tasks, this disparity leads to missed opportunities and decreased productivity.
Particularly, when transitioning from the NonZones environment to the Zones environment, it results in a deteriorated…

Provide an option to sync files with names beginning with '.'
Box sync / box drive needs to provide an option or a setting that will enable files whose names begin with '.' to be sync'ed.
Reason: I would like to be able to use Box Drive as storage for projects that I manage via Eclipse and GIT. However there are files and directories named .git and .project that currently box drive does not sync, which makes using my box drive as storage for such things impossible.3 votes -
Support for .IMA files in Box DICOM Viewer
I have a few DICOM files with the Siemens IMA extension. These files are fully compatible, just carry a different extension. In all other software they can be imported just like .dcm files. On Box I can even change the extension from .ima to .dcm and use it in the Box DICOM Viewer. Please enable support for this (and possibly other?) file extension.

"Show File Location" for Files Currently Uploading Through File Explorer/Finder
At this time, Box Drive only lists the File Name when checking the "Transfers" menu of synchronizing items. No indication is given as to where this syncing is taking place. The User is forced to memorize the location of an upload/download until it has completed.
I'm currently experiencing an issue where many large files (Gigabytes) are forever uploading after an unknown error restarts the upload upon completion. The only solution I've been given is to Log Out, thus deleting my Terabytes of Available Offline files. "UnsynchronizedFiles" in AppData proves to be unhelpful with certain errors.

Support preview for macro enabled MS Office files. Also add preview support for .jcl files for z/OS.
Many types of MS Office files are already supported by Box Preview. Not sure why adding the macro-enabled file support has not been done.
JCL (Job Control Language) files are used extensively in z/OS for many different types of work. It would be nice to store them in Box with the .jcl suffix to distinguish them from run of the mill .txt files.

Multiple folder Search options in Content Filters.
When we search content, we can only set a certain folder to search (with a tick box) as a condition.
However, we would like to select multiple folders in the Content Filter to have more specific results in order to refer file a in folder A and file b in folder B.5 votes
