Hi there, 

Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!

There is no option to force sync items in Box Drive as the app automatically sync your folders/files between your computer and Box when you are connected to the internet. 

If you would like to learn more on how Box Drive works, I recommend checking out this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697494-Using-Box-Drive-Basics 

Let us know if you have questions, and we'd be happy to help!

Regards,

I don’t understand this response.  Does box drive sync files to local storage or not? Syncing *ALL* files to local storage is 100% mandatory for me.
