Hello,

I am very tech illiterate.  I used to have the Box icon where I could create a file in Word, Excel, etc and then do a “save as”.  A very handy Box icon would pop up and then I could save my newly created file directly to Box.  

I cannot figure out how to get that Icon back.  

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Elizabeth

Hi ​@Elizabeth B

Welcome to Box Community, and we’re glad to assist!

According to your description, the Box icon that allows you to create and save files directly to Box from applications like Word or Excel is part of the Box for Office integration.

 

Do you recall installing the Box for Office desktop integration in your desktop? 

 

We’d love to hear back from you!
