You only have to invoke the &#8220;Share&#8221; experience by right-clicking on the file or clicking the &#8220;Share&#8221; button on <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/tag\/microsoft-edge\">Microsoft Edge<\/a>, then select the device you want to send the content. The receiving device will receive a notification to accept or deny the transfer, and if accepted, the file will download in the &#8220;Downloads&#8221; folder, or the link will open in the browser.<\/p>\n<p>However, Nearby Sharing may not always work as expected due to software and hardware compatibility issues, connection quality limitations, and more.
