Clipboard
Using Anyware, you can easily copy and paste files and text between the desktop and your computer.
File Transfer
Your P and Q drive(s) are mapped automatically to Anyware. Therefore, files stored on these drives should be accessible directly through Anyware without the need to transfer them from your local computer.
Open up File Explorer on the Anyware desktop.
Under This PC, look for the hard drive or flash drive that is connected to your local computer.
Find the needed file on your drive. You can open it in Anyware directly from your local drive or by copying it to your P or Q drive.
Data stored directly on the Anyware machine may be erased. We recommend saving files to a network drive or a cloud file service such as OneDrive or Google Drive.
