I'm having issues sending files from my Android device to my Windows 11 PC using LocalSend. It works fine the other way around, but I can't seem to get my files transferred from Android to my computer. I've tried creating a firewall exception for LocalSend as suggested, but that didn't help. I'm also certain that both devices are on the same network. What can I do to resolve this?

If you still want to try with LocalSend, testing it first with smaller files might help figure out if the size is an issue. Sometimes app issues happen with larger files. Also, have you looked at other similar apps like ShareIt or even using Google Drive for easier access? Those might be quicker alternatives.
It sounds like you might need to check your network settings a bit more closely. Make sure both devices are properly connected to the same Wi-Fi network and that your Android device has the necessary permissions enabled for LocalSend. Sometimes, firewall settings can be tricky, too—double-check that the exception for LocalSend is active. If everything seems alright, consider restarting both devices to refresh the connection.
If you're okay with using USB, you could opt for that as a backup. Just connect your phone to your PC via USB, enable USB debugging, and use the command 'adb push source /sdcard/dest' in the command prompt to move your files. It's a reliable method if LocalSend isn't cooperating.
