Transferring Files and Folders

The file transfer server is accessible as a drive in Windows Explorer, and you use standard Windows Explorer functions for moving and copying files between the server and your local machine.

In Windows Explorer navigate to Computer > Aspera Drive (Remote). The folders under the drive are for each of the accounts you created.
Use standard Windows Explorer functions for browsing through files and folders of each account, transferring files to and from your transfer account, or creating new folders.
Depending on your account's permissions on the file transfer server, you might encounter limitations regarding the following actions when browsing the file transfer server:
- Browsing
- Transfers
- File operations
- Context menu options
