Hi,

Whenever I try to share files from my Android Device to my Windows Pc using Nearby Sharing The pc and the mobile dose not detect each other but when I try to share files through my PC to my Laptop, they both detect each other. I'm on Windows 10 latest version and my android device is Xiaomi 10T (On latest Update).

Both my devices are on same Wi-Fi with Bluetooth turned on.

Here are some screenshots

    Hello ***, this is Emily.

    Currently the nearby sharing from Windows doesn't support sharing between Windows and Android. It is strictly among Windows PCs only.

    You can do nearby sharing via the Office 365 apps, but that's strictly among Android devices.
