We understand the request, but unfortunately this is not on the near-term roadmap.

We are currently not planning to implement this feature and will continue to prevent all Box Drive results from appearing in Explorer/Finder searches.
Box Drive does not download the all of the metadata (File name, folder structure, etc.) of your Box content. Instead, it is downloaded on demand and then evicted when it is no longer relevant. This eviction process is not visible to users and it is not easily predictable. This would cause the search results in Explorer/Finder to be inconsistent for users – sometimes they would find a file and other times they may not if the metadata and file were evicted.
We have chosen not to download all of the metadata (and then keep it up to date with changes) as this can result in a large performance, storage and bandwidth tax which is not scalable – especially in environments where users interface with millions of files/folders.

Hi, with COVID-19 and remote office, I can't afford BOXDrive taking all my bandwidth.
This prevents me to have Zoom calls or even browse smoothly the internet.(my ADSL = 0.9 M upload ; 11Mbps download)

The absence of this feature is really annoying !
For a given BOX folder, shared within my team with Editor rights, with BOX.com I can't
* add a Read-Only folder for the team (like ".../Archives/2021")
* add a personal & hidden subdirectory (like ".../myDraftWork")
Creating dedicated folders outside the project directory is NOT convenient at all, as we loose the structure / logic .
BOX.com, please improve the situation !
