Return the Request Files (transfer) via Right Clicking on a Folder. We used to be able to request files by right clicking on a Windows explorer folder. This saved a ton of time compared to logging into the webpage and creating a request end location from scratch. I can see no reason why this helpful feature was removed. Please put it back.

I agree, can we get this back. This is a very annoying change. Why would you make it more clicks and searches to request files?

I agree 100%. I'm flabbergasted that your development team took away one of the most useful features of Dropbox. GEEZ. Please don't stop at passing the information on. Please take responsibility and shepherd putting it back, and account to us here that it is happening, and by when.
- manzanarez992 months agoHelpful | Level 6Nancy, what was the outcome internally? I’d like to understand the benefits of this specific change for Dropbox or more importantly Dropbox users. This adds time to every single request. I’m finding there are a lot of alternatives to Dropbox. Currently looking at box.com as well as Google Drive. Ultimately, looking for ease of use and certainly accompany that’s not going to downgrade one of its best features. Please provide an update rather than letting users know you pass the information on into nothingness.
