This article shows how to upload and save user files to Box.

You will want to follow these steps for any and all files you wish to keep. These files are usually located on the desktop or in the folders located immediately below the desktop in file explorer. These folder locations include Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, and Videos. Be aware that users can save files in any folder located on the computer. Due to this we cannot verify which file locations to copy to Box. If you are unsure where your files are located ask for assistance before copying unnecessary folders to Box.

You may want to create a folder named Box and move all files you wish to upload to Box into that folder. This will make it easier to upload all your files.

  1. Log into Box and select "Upload" then "Folder." Select "File" when you are selecting a file.


  2. Select Desktop and choose the folder you want to upload then select "Upload."

You should see this folder in Box and receive the message that "items were uploaded successfully." Remember to follow these same instructions for any files located in Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos, or anywhere else you may have saved files on your computer.
