Box Drive now General Availability

April 4, 2018

Last June we announced that Box Drive (formerly Box for Desktop) was available in a beta version. Since then, Box has been adding functionality and it is now in General Availability (GA). This means that Box Drive is now a Core app and part of the official Box Apps. Be sure to keep Box Drive updated to the most recent version for full functionality.

You can now lock and unlock files in Box Drive! Right-click on the file and select Box > Lock file.

Box is working on the ability to mark files for offline use in Box Drive and we’ll announce that once it’s available and tested.

Important: If you currently use Box Sync, please read Making the Switch from Box Sync to Box Drive before installing Box Drive.

Box Drive is available to download in the Box Apps.
