File request option when right-clicking a file on macOS is no longer available

This issue has been reported previously on the following link but is now closed to any further responses.

This is an important feature that has been removed without notice or explanation.

I have tried to post the hyperlink to the previous discussion, but you are not allowing this either.

Please provide an update.

Regards

Robert

    Hey Robbie Mac, thanks for reaching out to us today.

    We really appreciate your feedback on this.

    At this time there's no update we can provide.

    You can still create your files requests online, but your comments and sentiment on this are very important to us and the team has been made aware.

    If there's anything else we can help with, let us know.

    The removal of the request files option on MacOS is perplexing and hurts customers. My law office utilized the request files ability daily.
