I am unable to access the box drive folder if my process is called Everything.exe.


If I rename my executable to anything other than Everything.exe I can access the folder.


 


 


An example:


I can access the box drive folder from a command prompt.


If I copy c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe to c:\windows\system32\Everything.exe


Launch c:\windows\system32\Everything.exe


I am unable to access the box drive folder.


 


 


Any reason there is a access block when the process is named Everything.exe?

interesting issue! 


curious - what if the E is a lowercase e? 


Same issue.
Both Everything.exe and everything.exe are blocked.


Apparently this started occurring in the latest box release 2.26.330.


For reference: 
New version of Box Drive prevents Everything from opening items in Box:

I will need to reach out to the boxer that owns Box Drive. I will have them respond. It may take some time. 


Any update to this issue?


Thanks,
