Hi, some time this year, Nextcloud desktop client lost the ability to get a share link with a single click in the file context menu. The new method is cumbersome, requiring more steps to do the same thing.

This could be somewhat alleviated if the Share window could be at least dismissed with a keyboard - Esc or cmd-w (on Mac). As of Client 4.0.0., use has to click the close button with a cursor, further slowing things down.

Thank you for looking into it.

If I recall correctly, the single click public sharing link creation has been removed due to security concerns. The risk to accidentally expose confidential information was too high.
