So to secure transferring, when you connect your Android device with computer then select USB tethering option in Settings > Tethering and Portable hotspot. Now, turn your attention to your Windows computer and open Windows Explorer and search for your connecting Android device, that should be displayed by Model name.

An important note, if you’re connecting Android device first time, then Windows will take few moments and show some drivers that may be necessary or not. If you think that you won’t connect this device again then skip all updates and just follow above. Otherwise, install updates first and then connect your device.

2. By Using Wifi

So after that, run this and select ‘Receive’ and press the Enter. Your data will be transferred. Transferring speed depends on size and device distance. Although primarily used as a Wifi direct app, but SuperBeam also supports NFC, sharing through QR code and also using existing Wifi networks for sharing.

3. Via Bluetooth

This way is especially for those, who have Bluetooth opportunity. New generation laptops have Bluetooth option for connectivity. So if you’ve a laptop then you should apply this one way also. So simply enable both devices Bluetooth options and establish connection between them. After that, chose your transferring file in Android device that you wanna migrate. Use Android share button to use Bluetooth to share data and select your PC in the subsequent list. Find the Bluetooth icon in the system tray meanwhile in Windows, then right-click and select Receive a file and click Next to transfer.
