File Upload using Native Events in Sahi OS

Hello All,
I am using Sahi 4.3 OS in a Windows 7 environment. I am unable to use the _setFile API after following all the documentation.
I am following the guide for File Upload using Native Events in Sahi OS from the documentation. A function setFileUpload($fileEl, $path) is created, but this uses the _focusWindow API. This does not appear to be present in the OS version meaning I can not use upload with the OS version. I have tried this workaround in a trial of the Pro version and it works well.
Is there something I am missing or should the OS version have access to this API?? I have searched the forums and google but can not come up with anything useful
Thanks

Please switch to Sahi OS latest version i.e. 4.4 and try using _setFile as well as _setFile2.
If it still doesn't serve your purpose please let me know.
Regards.
I have now tried using the _setFile and _setFile2 with 4.4 of the OS version. I receive an error on playback in the sahi console:
TypeError: this.getFileInputFrom(...) is null (https://application1.com/Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd?_TSM_HiddenField_=ctl00_ScriptManager1_TSM&compress=1&_TSM_CombinedScripts_=;;System.Web.Extensions, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35:en-GB:c9cbdec3-c810-4e87-846c-fb25a7c08002:ea597d4b:b25378d2;Telerik.Web.UI:en-GB:df833b2e-28ee-45e7-8320-6f2a9cb883d7:16e4e7cd:f7645509:22a6274a:ed16cbdc:68f76a79:24ee1bba:a585d0d4:874f8ea2:f46195d3:19620875:490a9d4e:2a2fc429:bd8f85e4:2715)
I am also not able to use the setFileUpload($fileEl, $path) workaround as described in the documentation.
Thanks again
