What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

hi I wish this application was compatible with right-to-left languages. For example, I use Windows with a right-to-left language. The vertical sidebar list is on the right side . can you please add this feature ? i cant purchase the app without RTL direction . thanks Image

Requirements

1- move the sidebar menu ( that display files and folders on the left side ) to the right side . 2- move the main big section (that show hard desks and all folders + files) to the left . 3- let tabs start from the right (first tab open on the right not on the left) 4- the options , arrows and buttons start from right to left .

I thought we already do this? If not we need extra care to sidebar visual states, while other WinUI controls support RTL such as Breadcrumb, TabView, AppBar, ListView and GridView afaik

We already do, but the code stopped working after the upgrade to WASDK.
