Need help transferring an Winrar File

[cooltwou]

I am not understanding why this keeps happening:
Could not find item.
This is no longer located in \\DESKTOP-K2JK48S\Movies.
Verify the item’s location and try again.

1: I see you are struggeling for a while now. I have some options but would like to know how big the file is that u want to transfer

2: Btw how big is that flash drive?

3: And about the problem you have, you do have both machines turned on and connected to the same network right?

4: which windows version does the pc u want to transfer from has? By that i mean home premium/professional or w.e

Well both have Windows 10 and right now it seems to be working good now it’s at 59%

But still, for in the future.

How big are the files ?
And how big is the flash drive?

I am not using the flash drive now and I think around 7gb but I couldn’t put any of these on there said every one was too big

Ah i guess your problem is that your flashdrive is formatted as fat32

Try reformatting it to ntsf.

How? Rightclick on the usb drive. Choose for formatting and format it as ntfs

When using fat32 you cant transfer files larger then 4gb. Not even if your flash drive would be 2tb

I got them to transfer I found another USB drive that had more memory & I formatted to ntsf & it worked the only downside was I could only copy one at a time

I'm glad you did it - besides all our terrible help attempts (ôô)

Transporting one at a time is too much trouble for more than a couple files, specially if your destination is on the other story of the house.
Of course you can carry the notebook to the PC desk, but then you could use a cable, a smartphone, or a portable hard drive... I'm sure you would if available.

Next time, and for anyone reading it,

- Windows Network Assistant;

- Windows Easy Transfer, works with CDs, USB cable direct, USB flash drive, etc - in Start/Accessories/System tools (Vista/Seven). https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help...gs-from-on

- Windows Remote Desktop or Remote Assistance, if you manage to connect the network - if not, you'll go by Internet at your service speed/data plan;

- TeamViewer, Wifi File Transfer Plus, WinScp, FileZilla, CuteFTP or any other file/network tool you test and like; not sure about Mobizen and Joiku;

- DropBox, Gdrive, OneDrive, or any upload service;

- DLNA, but won't fit all scenarios and are usually difficult to set up. In my experience Bluetooth is slow and unreliable.

Anyway, you can set one of them (PCs/notebooks) to act as a personal hotspot - again there're many apps to do that. Ostoto was my favorite but disappeared.
