Best,

yup, i followed the steps. Installing Box Drive for the first time on Monterey 12.0.1. Used the default link on that page. Upon trying to launch the Box Drive app, it refuses to launch. Nothing shows up, and activity monitor says it's not responding. 

Hi Ev, 

Can you try to manually reset your Box Drive following the steps in this article and see if it helps resolve this issue for you?

Let us know how it goes and if you have questions!

Regards,

If I do that, I get the error code 

"File provider com.box.desktop.boxfileprovider/Box not found. Available providers:
- iCloud Drive (hidden)
com.apple.CloudDocs.MobileDocumentsFileProvider
~/L{5}y/M{14}s
fileproviderctl: can't find domain for com.box.desktop.boxfileprovider/Box: (null)"

or, if I try the instructions for the kernel based mode, i get 

"2021-11-05 19:28:50.119 defaults[47103:1138807]
Domain (com.box.desktop) not found.
Defaults have not been changed."
