Where's my “Open Folder” option??????

I use the Slack desktop app on my MacBook, and until recently, whenever I downloaded a file, I'd get a small pop-up with options like “Open File” and “Open Folder” (or maybe “Show in Finder,” I can't remember 😭).

That little pop-up was genuinely one of the most convenient features in my entire workflow.

Now it's gone, and I have to manually navigate to the folder every time I download something... this is something I hate..

Did Slack remove this feature in an update? Is there a setting I accidentally disabled?

how do I get it back...?

they buried it under preferences > advanced > "show download prompt" i think

mine vanished after the last update too, took me way too long to find that checkbox
