Compressed file downloaded from the online Microsoft Store, typically when updating the version of Windows to Windows 7; should be downloaded with an .EXE file that, when opened, unpacks the data in the BOX file and installs Windows.

BOX files are not meant to be opened manually. Instead, they contain data that can be unpacked and used by the associated EXE file in the installation process. If you did not download an EXE file with the BOX file, you should contact the store support to download the remaining files.

A BOX file may also be an audio file created by select Kodicom closed-circuit TV (CCTV) cameras and digital video recorders (DVRs). It stores audio data in the proprietary Kodicom format. BOX files accompany .BIX files, which store video captured by the same CCTV cameras.

Kodicom is a Korean digital communications company specializing in CCTV equipment for surveillance purposes. The CCTV camera(s) and DVR that captures the footage saves the video in a BIX file and the audio in a BOX file.

You can open a BOX file with the Kodicom software included with the purchase of the CCTV cameras and DVR that captured the footage. You can also open a BOX file with Techjunkies i3 DVR in Windows if you have access to the software.

The Kodicom DVR included with the purchase of the CCTV equipment can export the BIX and BOX files storing the video and audio as an .AVI video file.
