    Solved by reinstalling the app. Thanks to support.

    Uninstall Box Drive by following these steps:

    1. Quit Box Drive
    2. Run the uninstaller script:
      • Launch Terminal.
      • Type the following and press Enter:
        /Library/Application\ Support/Box/uninstall_box_drive

    You do not see your password as you enter it. Just press ENTER when have finished typing it in.


    - Check that the folder path ~/Library/Application\ Support/Box doesn't exist or is empty. Check that Box Drive has disappeared from System Preferences. Restart the machine.

    - Install the latest Box Drive here. When prompted, enable the kernel extension from System Preferences -> Security And Privacy.

    I also failed on 11.5.2   Everything I am reading says to enable in Privacy&Security but what do you do if it is not there?
