    If you go to system preferences > Externsions > Finder Extensoins

    Hope this helps!

Hey guys, thanks for the responses and your ongoing patience on this.

I can confirm that this is true indeed and the checkbox to enable or disable the Finder Integration has been removed from our desktop app's preferences. 

You'll be able to find it on your Mac's 'System Preferences', then 'Extensions' and then 'Finder Extensions'. From there you'll be able to toggle it off or on according to your needs. 

You can find more information on this on the following page:

I hope this helps to some extent!
