Windows 10 offers a convenient feature called Nearby Sharing, which allows you to effortlessly share files with other Windows 10 devices that are physically close by. This feature uses Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to transfer files, making it simple to share documents, photos, and links without the need for emails or external storage devices.

How to share files with nearby devices on Windows 10

Step 1: Open the Settings app by clicking on the Start menu and selecting the gear icon. Navigate to System, then click on Shared experiences in the sidebar.

Step 2: In the Share across devices section, locate the Nearby sharing toggle and ensure it is turned on. Click the dropdown menu underneath and select Everyone nearby to allow sharing with any nearby devices.

Step 3: Find the file you wish to share, right-click on it, and choose Share from the context menu.

Step 4: A sharing window will appear, displaying available nearby devices. If you don't see the device you're looking for, make sure that Nearby sharing is enabled and set to Everyone nearby on that device.

Step 5: Click on the name of the device you want to share the file with. The recipient will receive a notification to accept or decline the file. Once accepted, the file transfer will begin, and you can monitor the progress in the Action Center.

By following these steps, you can quickly share files between Windows 10 devices without the need for additional software or internet connectivity.

Nearby Sharing simplifies file transfers, making it easier to collaborate and share content with others in your immediate vicinity.
