    I'm getting the same message- see below. I don't have an IT department so this seems like an issue with Box and just a recent one, as all the other programmes and applications are working fine. My OS version Mac OS big sur version 11.5.1 . Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Thanks

    I've dealt with this problem twice in the past month.  Box Drive is automatically updating to v2.27.240 and when this happens the error reported above occurs.  This is a known issue to Box Support see details here:

     
    I've resolved this by removing the Box app and installing an older version (v.2.26.348) which I initially dowloaded from the link on the page above.  
    It appears that even though Box indicates that they are turning off auto update for M1 systems, this did not happen for me.  My fix worked for ~2 weeks and then Box Drive auto updated again and I had to repeat the process.  Not very helpful.
     
    Box...please resolve this issue or disable auto update...or tell us how to do it.
    Thank you.

    I'm getting the same issue on an Intel Mac running Monterey (12.5). The Box version I'm trying to use is 2.27.240.
