The old file picker is retired with this update and is being replaced with the new, updated file picker to integrate Google Workspace. Selecting multiple files is temporarily not possible and will be restored at a later date.
MSU Note: The new file picker does not seem to currently work with Firefox (PC and Mac) or Chrome (Mac only).
