Currently my files sync to a Box Folder located on my C Drive.  I want to move the folder to my D Drive which has more space.  The instructions I have seen all relate to setting the sync location upon install, but they don’t reflect what you can do when it is already installed.  Does one need to uninstall and then re-install Box Sync to change the location?  Seems like there should be an option to change the location.

My Box Sync Options

 

You can change your Box Sync folder location without reinstalling. First, quit the Box Sync application, then manually MyMilestoneCard com move your "Box Sync" folder to your D drive. Relaunch the application, and a prompt will appear asking you to locate the folder. Simply navigate to the new location on your D drive, select the folder, and Box Sync will automatically resume syncing from its new location.
