Here we have brought a method that would help people to sort out the file transfer needs for good. Well, initially there would be some settings that people need to change first but after everything would be smooth sailing. One thing that people need to keep in mind, that both of their devices need to be connected to the same network so that they would be able to use this feature. Here are some steps that need to be followed in order to enable file sharing on their Windows PC:

If anyone wants to transfer the file wirelessly from the iPhone to the Windows PC,

1. One needs to create a new folder which would be used to keep the files into.

2. Then, right click on the same folder and go to ‘Properties’. Then, navigate to ‘Sharing’.

3. Once in the Sharing tab, click on ‘Share’. Now, from the drop down menu, choose ‘Everyone’ then Add. Keep on saving these settings by clicking ‘Share’ on the bottom of the dialog box.

4. Now, in the Sharing tab, open ‘Advanced Sharing’. Check the ‘Share this folder option’ and then grant all permissions to it.

5. Open System Settings, head towards ‘Network & Internet’ then, ‘Network & Sharing Center’.

6. At last in the top left, click on ‘Change advanced sharing settings’. Here, expand ‘All Networks’ and choose ‘Turn off password protected sharing’, use 128-bit encryption and then turn on ‘Public Folder Sharing’.
