USE CASE · FILES

Transfer files between computers, inside the session

A driver to install, a report to fetch, a folder of photos to move — drag it across while you are connected, without email, USB sticks or cloud links.

A file manager for both PCs

Next to the remote screen, VVDesk shows the files of both computers. Drag files and whole folders in either direction; they travel inside the same encrypted session as the screen, so nobody in between can read them.

  • Files and whole folders, both ways
  • Search the remote PC for a file by name
  • See every file’s progress and cancel any of them
  • Chat with the person at the desk while the files move

Why not email or a cloud link?

Attachments have size limits, and cloud links leave copies of your files on someone else’s servers. A transfer in VVDesk goes from one PC to the other — directly where the network allows — and leaves nothing behind on our servers.

Questions

Is file transfer encrypted?

Yes. Files travel inside the session, which is encrypted end to end with AES-256-GCM.

Does the person at the desk have to allow it?

Yes. The person at the desk decides what is allowed — view, control, files — and can change it during the session.

Can I transfer files from my phone?

Yes, the Android and iPhone apps can move files too.
