Remove folder owner from accessing the folder

My colleague transitioned a project to me with the box folder. My colleague is the owner of the folder, and she sets me as a co-owner of the folder, Since she is not part of the project anymore, can I remove her (owner) from accessing the folder?

    Hi Alan, 

    Welcome to the Box Community and thanks for your post in the forum!
     
    Only folder owners can remove collaborators in a shared folder. The current folder owner would have to transfer the ownership of the folder to you and then you can remove her from that project folder afterwards.

    Thanks for your question and participation in Box Community!
