File-Transfer is a file sharing app for Windows. It helps you send large files without the usual pain of email limits and slow uploads. You can upload a file, set a password, share a link, and let others download it for a short time.
It is built for simple use. You do not need to know how servers, buckets, or workers work to use the app on your PC.

If the download comes as a .zip file:

When you open File-Transfer for the first time, you may need to connect it to your storage settings. This lets the app save and send files.
Use the app settings to enter:
- Your storage name
- Your access password, if you use one
- Your file share key, if you use one
- Your link expiry time
A simple setup is enough for most users:
- Leave password fields empty if you do not want password protection
- Keep the default file expiry time if you want links to close on their own
- Use the same settings each time so uploads stay consistent
Click the upload area and choose one or more files from your PC.
Large files may take time. The app splits big files into parts so uploads stay steady.
You can add:
- A password for the file
- An expiry time
- A short download link
Send the link to the other person. They can open it in a browser and download the file.
If you want to share on a phone, show the QR code and let the other person scan it.
File-Transfer includes a few simple controls to help keep files private:
- Password protection for access
- Temporary download links that expire after a short time
- Auto delete after the set time ends
This helps when you want to share files for a short period and do not want them left open.
For a smooth experience on Windows, use:
- Windows 10 or newer
- 4 GB RAM or more
- A stable internet connection
- Enough free disk space for your files
- A modern browser for opening shared links
For large transfers, faster internet will help. If you send many files, more free memory can help too.

worker.jsfor the app logicwrangler.tomlfor Cloudflare setup- R2 storage for file data
You do not need to edit these files to use the Windows app, but they help if you want to understand how the service works.
The app uses Cloudflare services in the background. That means file storage and link handling depend on your Cloudflare setup.
Typical setup items include:
- A Cloudflare Workers project
- An R2 bucket for file storage
- A bucket name such as
file-transfer - A secret key for download link checks
- A password if you want private access
- Use short file names when possible
- Keep passwords simple enough to store safely
- Set a clear expiry time for each file
- Delete files you no longer need
- Use the QR code when sharing with phone users
