Transfering files between client and host computers
If you are connected to VNC Server (Enterprise) or VNC Server (Personal), you can exchange files with the
host computer.
Note: If file transfer fails for any reason, see Troubleshooting file transfer on page 65.
Sending files to a host computer
To send files to a host computer:
1. Click the File Transfer VNC Viewer toolbar button. The VNC Viewer - File Transfer dialog opens on
the client computer:
2. Click the Send files button. The VNC Viewer - Send Files dialog opens.
3. Select a file or folder. To select multiple files and/or folders, hold down the SHIFT key.
Note: Under Windows, you cannot directly select a folder. Instead, double-click to open that folder, then
click Use Entire Folder. To select multiple folders, open the parent folder and click Use Entire Folder.
Note this means other files and folders in the parent folder will also be transfered.
