Box Sync on Windows: can it start minimized?
I am always getting the Box Sync window open upon OS login, but I am almost never using it. Can I get Box Sync started just in the background, i.e. minimzed to the system tray? That would be a valuable option under Settings.

Hi Peter,
Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!
If you wish to prevent Box Sync from starting automatically on your Windows PC, you can just remove Box Sync from the startup menu.
To disable Startup applications, you may follow these steps:
- Press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC to open the Task Manager.
- Click More Details.
- Open the Startup tab.
- Right-click on the application, ex. Box Sync and then select Disable.
Let me know if you have any questions and we will help you!
Best,

Hi France,
"If you wish to prevent Box Sync from starting automatically on your Windows PC" : This is not what I want. I want Box Sync to always sync my files. But the always opening Box Sync window is annoying. I almost never use that window. I just need to close it each time I log in to the OS. Instead I am suggesting a feature adding an option to the Settings that allows to chose Box Sync to start minimized to the Windows System Tray.
