Using this feature
Depending on your settings the following dialogs can be started manually, automatically (option to use it or not) or even enforced. The dialogs will be the same, only the way it is being triggered is different. If the setting enforces it, the dialog will start by itself so therefor we will focus on the manual option.
If you want to manually upload attachments, you can go to the Share Files button in your email dialog ribbon. This can be accessed from the “Message” or “Sendent” tab.
Once the Share Files option is activated a new dialog will appear.
You can’t go back into Outlook as long as this dialog is still open.
