Microsoft has started testing a new feature in the Windows 11 operating system that will provide easier file management with Android phones. Users registered in the Windows Insider program will be able to access the folders and files of their Android phones wirelessly, thanks to this new integration.
Easy access to Android phones with Windows 11 File Explorer
This new feature added to Windows 11’s File Explorer allows Android devices to be displayed just like a USB memory. In this way, users will be able to copy, move, change file names and delete files between their PC and Android phones much faster and more practically. This method, which is faster than the existing Phone Connection application, will make things easier for users.
To activate this feature, a device with Android 11 or higher is required. Additionally, it is required to join the Windows Insider program and use the beta version of the Link to Windows application. The feature has been rolled out to all distribution channels of the Windows Insider program. This means that everyone using Windows 11 will be able to benefit from this new feature in a short time.
How to install and use Windows File Explorer feature for Android devices?
To activate this new file explorer feature, you need to go to the Settings menu and enter the Bluetooth and Devices section. From here, find the device management option under the Mobile Devices tab and you can establish a connection between the PC and Android phone through this option. In the warning window that opens, there is a toggle button for file explorer access and this button is activated. Following these steps, you can access the files of the Android phone.
This integration will speed up file management processes and improve user experience. Users will be able to perform their operations directly through File Explorer, without needing extra applications to transfer files. This will be a great advantage, especially for users who frequently transfer files at work.
This move by Microsoft can be considered an important step towards making users’ lives easier by increasing the compatibility of Windows 11 with Android devices. We can predict that Windows 11 and Android integration will become even stronger as the feature is made available to all users.
