Box Drive App Issue - Windows 10
I recently reset my Windows 10 laptop. Once completed, I installed Box Drive but when I enter my credentials (the proper ones, if you're wondering), the program status in the taskbar says not signed in. No errors come up. I have tried resetting Box Drive, uninstalling and re-installing it, all to no avail. I have no trouble signing in on Microsoft Edge, but I need access to my Box drive on my laptop. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
