Folder level encryption with box.com

[David]

Is folder encryption available with Box.com?  I can’t get it to work.  With my Windows10 machine, folder encryption works as expected with local directories (ie: c:\temp\testfolder), where all the contents of test folder are encrypted and get the .axx suffix after being encrypted.

However, for my box folders (synced to my pc), it doesn’t work.  I attempt to encrypt the folder, but nothing is encrypted.

Note: I am seeing that file level encryption works as expected on box, but not folder level encryption.

Update: I noticed after signing out and exiting AxCrypt, the contents of my encrypted box.com folder were then updated with encryption status (*.axx).

Is it expected behavior that the files on box would only be updated after exiting the AxCrypt program?

Note: I did indeed wait for a good 20min before doing the above.
