Jeroen Mostert Jeroen Mostert I have found it is not necessary for both servers to have PS 5 installed. I just performed a successful test where only the source server Windows 10 had PS 5 installed. PSVersion reports 4. If you use -ToSession on the source, only the source needs PS 5 installed.
If you use -FromSession on the target, only the target needs PS 5 installed. This also works when you only have Hypervisor installed without server , no need to set up shares just use the sessions! Thank you! After a successful connection go to Computer or This PC on the remote computer and under Other you should see the shared drives.
Now you can start transferring files to and from your remote computer. Another option for transferring files in the Remote Desktop session is by using the Windows Clipboard so you can right click and Copy the file on the host computer and then right click and select Paste inside the Remote Desktop. This works just the same as if you are copying and pasting inside your own computer and obviously also works on text.
The option to use the Clipboard should be enabled by default but you can turn it off and on from the Local Resources tab in step 3. As there is a copy and paste function from the host machine to the Remote Desktop and the option to use the mapped drives to transfer files, which one is the quickest?
If you add a standard shared folder which may already be set up between the computers, there are three ways to get the files transferred over the network to the remote machine.
As a simple test we decided to see which copy method was fastest to copy a selection of files and folders from one computer to the other using the three methods above. In test 1 you can see that the mapped drive and shared folder are quite close together, but copying from the host machine and then pasting into the Remote Desktop is around 20 seconds slower. To right click and copy from the host and paste into the Remote Desktop really did take nearly 40 minutes while the others completed in under 3.
There is clearly a huge amount of overhead with copy and paste when using Remote Desktop and you should try not to use it for transferring more than a few files or a few dozen Megabytes at a time.
Using one of the other methods will really help speed transfers up. In such cases, you need to use software with remote file transfer features such as AnyDesk or Igiko.
They also have remote access features like RDP. You can use file transfer even if you do not have to have full control of the remote computer. Transfer files by using the upload and download buttons or by dragging and dropping files.
You can also right click on a file to open or download it directly. Delete a directory or file. Note that deleting a file or folder permanently deletes it. It is not sent to the recycle bin. Select one or more files or directories and then click the appropriate button to upload the files to the remote system or download to your local system.
You can share your available Windows drives while inside the Drives section. For example, any attached optical drives such as a CD drive, DVD drive, or portable storage - like flash drives are sharable in case you want to connect to them in the future.
