Is it possible to share a searched file/folder in SharePoint?

When searching SharePoint, I'm unable to share a file or folder from the results.

If I manually locate the file or folder, I'm able to share it.

This isn't a permissions issue as the "share" button is completely missing.

    Hi @Martin Jennings ,
    As far as I know, this is by design and there is currently no other way. Unless you manually locate the file or folder, you're able to share it.

    Thanks,
