HFS - HTTP File Server

HFS - HTTP File Server:
Also available in Symenu.
If you are struggling to get Windows to access another PC on the network and need to move some files, this is a good temporary solution. Yes, you could just access the window share with the PC's IP but you do need to set up a share and then remove the share when you are done. With HFS just drag a fold in to share and when you close HFS, you are done.

The program is a single, stand-alone file. Just start the program.
Do this . . . Be sure the server is started.
Don't bother setting up user and password for local networks.
Drag folder or folders in and choose "real folder" option.
On the second PC, open a browser and enter the address of the server. Remember to include the port.
Example: 192.168.1.34:80
Download must be a file. Click on the file to open/download. It will not download a folder.
Example: You have a folder with MiniToolPartitionManager and want to transfer. You must zip the fold to a file. We could say it's a "file" server and not a "folder" server :)
