Can we remove the "Your Files Are Ready To Upload" message?

Another "update" that makes a process longer for my team.  Now when we drag and drop from Outlook to the web version of Dropbox we get the message shown below "Your Files Are Ready To Upload" which requires another click to upload them...they used to just upload.  Not sure why this is happening now or how it's an improvement as it makes a process longer.  Please change this as we upload hundreds of files daily.  Thank you.

    Hey epco, thanks for taking the time to post to our Community.

     

    At the moment, this prompt cannot be removed, however, we really appreciate your feedback about this.

     

    I will make sure your comments are passed along to our team.

     

    In the meantime, you can always use our desktop application as a workaround, since it's our preferred method of uploading files.

     

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks for response.  I don't know why any update would make an existing process more complicated.  The desktop app has syncing issues and we prefer to drag and drop to online as it's easier to ensure the files are uploaded.  Please make sure your team hears my feedback.

     

    Thanks again.

    Any chance this need to press the upload button gets sunset anytime soon?  I just don't see the benefit.

    Hi epco, happy Thursday! 

     

    Unfortunately, I don't have further info on this, and whether it'll be removed or not. 

     

    We listen to your needs because it allows us to fully appreciate how Dropbox fits into and influences your daily routine. I'll definitely keep your comments in mind, and pass them to the relevant areas, so we can continue to improve.

     

    Thanks!
