I am new to Box and trying to figure out how to sync folders on my HDD -> other than the system drive c:\.


Dragging a folder into the box folder shows it there as "synced" but files added to THAT folder do NOT appear in the box folder.

Is there a trick to this, or is this maybe a feature only available for paid plans?

Thank you.
