Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is there a limit on the file size I can transfer with AnyViewer?

    AnyViewer allows you to transfer files of almost any size. While the Free version has a per-file limit (up to 100MB per file), AnyViewer paid plans support a maximum file transfer size of 2TB. Whether you are sending a massive 1TB database or a single 4K video file, AnyViewer handles it without corruption or timeouts.

  • How fast is the file transfer speed?

    In a stable network environment, AnyViewer supports speeds up to 10MB/s. Unlike many competitors that throttle speeds for free users to a few hundred KB/s, we provide a high-speed dedicated channel to ensure your transfers are completed in minutes, not hours.

  • Can I transfer files if no one is at the remote computer?

    Yes. By enabling Unattended Access, you can securely transfer files to or from your remote office computer even if it is currently unmanned. As long as the remote PC is powered on and AnyViewer is running, you can manage your files from anywhere in the world.

  • How secure are my files during the transfer process?

    Security is our top priority. AnyViewer uses ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) 256-bit end-to-end encryption for every transfer session. This is the same level of security used by global financial institutions, ensuring that your data is never intercepted, stored on our servers, or accessible by third parties.

  • Does AnyViewer support folder transfers and drag-and-drop?

    Absolutely. You can transfer individual files or entire folder structures while maintaining the original directory hierarchy. For Windows-to-Windows connections, we also support the intuitive Drag-and-Drop feature, allowing you to move files between local and remote screens as if you were working on a single machine.

What Our Users Say

Marcus T

Freelance Video Editor

I’ve tried almost every remote desktop tool out there, and AnyViewer’s file transfer speed is on another level. I regularly move 5GB+ video project files between my home Mac and office PC. While other tools throttle my speed, AnyViewer consistently hits that 10MB/s mark. It’s a lifesaver for my deadlines.

Sarah Jenkins

IT Consultant

The dual-pane File Manager is exactly what I needed. I can push software patches to my clients’ servers without even starting a full remote control session. It’s clean, professional, and the ECC encryption gives my corporate clients the peace of mind they demand.

David L.

Sales Manager

Being able to pull a PDF from my office computer directly to my iPhone while I’m on the train is incredible. The mobile app interface is intuitive, and unlike other apps, I don't have to deal with 'commercial use suspected' blocks just for grabbing a quick file.

Elena Rodriguez

Tech Startup Founder

We switched to an AnyViewer paid plan because we were tired of the 100MB file limits on other platforms. Now, our team transfers entire database backups (sometimes 200GB+) without a single hitch. It’s easily the best value-for-money solution on the market.

James Chen

Software Developer

I work on a MacBook at home but my office workstation is Windows. AnyViewer makes the cross-platform file transfer feel non-existent. The drag-and-drop feature on Windows is a nice touch, but even on my Mac, the process is just a few clicks. Highly recommended for hybrid setups.

Linda M.

Executive Assistant

I often forget to save files to the cloud before leaving the office. With AnyViewer, I just log in from home, use the unattended access feature, and grab what I need. It’s like having a 20-meter long USB cable that reaches across the city.
