Windows 10: Need networking advice

I am trying to transfer files from my laptop (Windows 10 x64, ver 1909) to my desktop (Win 10 x64 ver 20H2. I have a lot of options, but can't seem to get any to work:

1) Google Drive--I appear to have two Google Drives, one talking to my phone and laptop, the other to my desktop. How do I either merge these or get them both to talk to all?

2) Dropbox -- same problem

3) Ethernet, via my router. Can't seem to find simple instructions that apply to both Win versions

4) WiFi -- can't seem to find simple instructions that apply to both Win versions. Laptop won't always be on same desk as my desktop, and I have other PCs elsewhere, so this is probably best bet longterm.

Can someone please tell me where to find simple directions that will get this transfer running fast?

Did our Epson printer get hacked?

Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.
