How to Prefill Data in an Additional Form Submission from the First Form Submission

How to Prefill Data in an Additional Form Submission from the First Form Submission

We need to prefill data in the second form submission based on the previously submitted form (when using the "Add Another Response" option).

We have a form which allows customers to send us files via upload.  It requires them to provide name, company name, email, etc. and then select files to submit.  

After submission they are given the chance to add more files if needed (in case they have more than 5) using the "Add Another Response" option and this works fine.  However, it is very inconvenient for the customer to have to fill out the same information.  We need the data in the second form to prefill from the first form so they can only select more files to upload on the second form.  Right now, the second form opens with blank fields for them to refill (which doesn't make sense).

I've search all options and cannot see how to accomplish this and yet it is such a needed feature as we want to make the process simple and easy to encourage customers to use the form.
