ProjectSight File Library-to-Windows File Explorer Integration Merged

Countless man hours are spent transferring a project server's point file system to the project management software's point file system at the closeout/delivery stage of a job. Prolog made this very difficult to do because of the inability to load a folder structure into the Prolog point file system, meaning the structure would have to be recreated in Prolog and the contents of each uploaded individually. Even if it allowed folder structures to be transferred, there would still be a unwanted labor on the backend due to large file sizes and most likely failed uploads due to timeouts. Realistically, teams could consistently use the file library in ProjectSight to avoid this transfer, but most people naturally want to use their computer's file explorer. As seen with Microsoft Teams recently, the integration of Teams' Sharepoint system into the computer's native file explorer is a tremendous leap and is much more comfortable for users than accessing through the Team's app or a web browser. If ProjectSight could find a way to allow user's to link their PS file library to a shared server in the file explorer, similar to Teams, it would be a major improvement.
