    Thank you for the suggestion. We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap.

    Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

    The lack of this feature presents a serious Catch 22: when the Box Drive app isn't running I can't access my files and, but running it clobbers a slow internet connection. I was just on a Zoom call with a major Hollywood Director while filming in a remote location, and had to launch Box Drive to show him a file - one I had already chosen "make available offline," no less. The simple act of launching Box Sync tanked my internet connection to the point where Zoom kicked me out of the call, and it took me several minutes to copy the file out of Box, quit Box Drive, and rejoin the call. Quite embarrassing, to be honest. Please add the ability to pause syncing as a feature!!!
