File Transfer

Managed Connect features outgoing and incoming file transfer during the remote connection sessions, meaning that you can initiate file transfer on either computer to provide more powerful interaction between the computers.

File transfer is primarily aimed at transferring documents, pictures, and installation packages, whereas transferring sizeable media files is not recommended. For received files, the file size is limited by 2GB. For outgoing file transfers there are no size limitations. There are no restrictions as to what file can be transferred, so you can share just about any file necessary.

To initiate a file transfer, click on the file transfer icon on the Connect toolbar.

Then click Receive Files or Send files, as necessary.
