File Sharing Updated

Have you ever said, "I can see the PC on the network but I can't access it"?

On Same Network Cross Platform
LocalSend (my new favorite) winget install -e --id LocalSend.LocalSend
ShareDrop works well. It's a web platform. Not sure of limitations.
Send seems to work also.

*These have gone off the rails so just set up ssh, ftp or web server and get on with life.
Servers
HFS web server, Xlight ftp server
Clients

Not On Same Network
Large Files and Auto Delete
... Wormhole (10gb self delete encrypted)

Small Files and Auto Delete (pain on Android phone)
... Sendanywhere

Large Files
... pCloud (May be best right now)

Large Files and Manual Delete
... Mega

Onionshare (Slow and may choke on large files but I like the concept.)
Receiving end needs to use Tor for the onion share address.

. . . Or Better yet SSH (Look Here)

Curl, Wget, Winget & Powershell Install or Download Commands

After the mess I made in previous posts this summary might be useful.     Thanks PatchMyPC, the great and powerful program downloader and up...
