Copy file link to Outlook

My company computer was recently upgraded and now I am no longer able to perform an action that I used to do frequently.

I used to be able to easily copy a full network link shortcut from explorer to Outlook via selecting the file with my right mouse button and dragging and dropping that file into an Outlook email. It would then give me a drop down where I could select to either copy the file or copy a link. Because I do all my work on shared public networked drives, this made it very easy to share information or let a co-worker know where a document or information that they need can be found.

It would copy like this: "\\\Public2\ABCproject\File.xls"

But with this new computer it doesn't work anymore. I don't know what version of Windows or of Outlook I had before, but now I have Windows 10 Pro and Outlook 2010.

So how can I get a text link of the network location of a folder into Outlook to email someone. Note, I DO NOT want a shortcut of the file, but the link.

Thanks
