Folder copy to Android

Post by RonH »

I am guessing that the answer is 'no' but worth asking our experts.

I have created a folder on W7 that contains emails, Word & Excel docs, PDF's and jpec. It is complete detail of a forthcoming event and I would like to copy it to my Android tablet. Each of the doc types can be read on my tablet since I have installed the relevant apps. However, since the containing folder is Microsoft W7 I am guessing that it will be necessary to copy the individual files across :scratch: but one of our experts may have a 'quick and dirty' solution

I store my files on a NAS drive. If I set up ES File Explorer on my Android tablet, then I can connect to the NAS drive and copy a whole folder across.

Alternatively, using a USB stick (the Android tablet has to support OTG) I can - again using ES File Explorer - copy folder to the tablet.
