Had a problem where box drive would quit because of an issue. I tried to run the uninstall script through terminal but it didn't seem to work. I can't even see the supposed location where it's supposed to archive my files to. At this point I just want to uninstall everything and start over. But it will not physically uninstall itself. I am lost. HELP!

Unsuccessfully uninstalling box drive
Running the uninstaller runs into an error saying it's not there, but even when I restart the computer — Box is still running. I want to fully delete this so I can reinstall. I don't care about the files. Just getting it working again.
MacBook-Pro-8:~ pzavit$ /Library/Application\ Support/Box/uninstall_box_drive ; exit;

Still getting this error message on Box. "Box Drive has encountered a problem that requires you to manually reset Box Drive."
