Can Remote Desktop transfer files?

Is it possible to copy files to remote desktop only on Windows?

RDC utilizes Microsofts Remote Desktop Protocol to share files to remote desktop sessions. This functionality comes standard in every edition of Windows 10 and Windows Server.

There are RDP-compatible software tools by Microsoft that also provide Mac users with the ability to connect to Windows PCs and access mobile platforms like iOS and Android.

If youre on a Mac computer, you can transfer files to Windows remote desktops by using the Redirection tab (located in the Remote Desktop app).

Windows users have the Remote Desktop Connection tool already built-in, which makes configuring file-sharing settings (before connecting), simple and fast.
