How do you share an anonymous link to a folder or file from Sharepoint Online? We were told by Microsoft support this is not possible but how can that be?

In my dev tenant with the same settings as you in that screenshot, I can share files with anyone with an anonymous link from a standard document library. With an Office 365 Group, this didn't work, I got the greyed out Anyone option that you posted earlier but I see now that's explained in the link on my last post and can be changed:
"By default, all SharePoint site collections that are part of an Office 365 Group have the sharing setting set to Allow sharing only with the external users that already exist in your organization’s directory."

Im not sure what this means. Can you clarify? What group are you referring to? How do we fix this so we can share anonoymous links?
