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.

An error occurred while saving the comment Anonymous commentedThis is a great idea and would be very useful. Having to add people individually in order for them to receive an email defeats the entire convenience of having group aliases available. Normal-course users do not notice the small 'notification,' and require an email to pay attention to a new item shared with them as a group.

It would be extremely helpful to be able to save your search preferences (like, for example, search "Folders only." Such a simple add, and so much duplicative efforts avoided. Or, for example, to only be able to search in the folder you are currently looking at.
