    • Delete shared folders from filesystem fix - Drive fix to ensure that when a shared folder (collection) is deleted from the filesystem (e.g., via Finder/File Explorer) it is actually hidden from Drive in the Desktop App UI in the web browser and made available in the Shared tab to unhide it as needed.

    • Activity Logs fix - Fix to display the activity logs of a user that uses Web PreVeil regardless of their email having upper or lower case characters.

    • Mail attachment badge fix - Prevent having the attachment badge in message in an email thread disappearing when reloading the web browser.
