    Slow file tranfers with Win 10 PCs


    I am frequently having to move large amounts of data several GB between my Win 10 laptop and desktop. I have both connected to my router with Ethernet cables. The laptop does not have a dedicated Ethernet port but I am using a USB to Ethernet adapter. Under adapter settings I have both Wifi and Ethernet enabled on the desktop, but the laptop only permits wifi. The file transfers can take hours. Is there a faster way?

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop
