Environment

Micro Focus Filr 3.3
Micro Focus Filr Desktop client

Situation

When a user tries to share a folder using the Filr Desktop client, the option to re-share File link is greyed out and cannot be selected. However, if the same user tries to share the same folder using the Filr Web interface, the option to re-share File link is available and can be selected.

Resolution

A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 3.4 Update. With the fix in place, users will be able to select the re-share File link option from the Desktop client's share dialog provided the user has the necessary sharing rights to do so.

Additional Information

Check and make sure the following right is granted to the user for the Net Folder in question: Allow the recipient to grant folders re-share privilege.
