Hi,

File transfers via smartphone Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra to Windows 11 don't function : nothing happens/my pc is found by the smartphone, but transfers don't succeed..

Please be so kind to solve this.

Thank you.

    Hi Mario,

    When you transfer files to Windows, you should be using the receive files option.

    On the right bottom, system tray, right-click on the bluetooth icon and then choose, recieve a file. It would open a new window, titled "Waiting for a Connection", now select the PC on your Samsung device, it should send.

    Let me know if it works :)
