What issue are you seeing?
In the chat window, I cannot upload images anymore.
When I select "Add photos & files", it simply opens the top VScode input tab
and prompts me to select the right path on my server.
In the past, selecting this button, I could simply upload images from my PC into the chat.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Try to upload an image from your local PC into your chat.

Which platform are you on: Linux, macOS, Windows, or Windows with WSL?
Please update to the latest version and see if that addresses the issue. We've made a few changes here recently.
Yes, what was the point of removing this? Makes 0 sense. Forced to use older versions now to upload images easily
I am on Windows 11. And yes, in this case I use VScode WSL.
However, now that I logged out and logged back in, it works again. Thanks
