Click the tab for 'Allow users to upload files in the archive' to switch it on or off ![Screenshot 2024-06-04 at 15.53.49.png](https://cloud.headwayapp.co/changelogs_images/images/big/000/128/584-b196bb40a0db9bb33a30b7df28506dc9bbaae5e6.png)   **P.S:** Would you like to import all your old contracts, and connect metadata & other Precisely features to them?
