NetworkOpenedFiles 1.35

In Windows, there are built-in capabilities for sharing files and folders with other users connected to your LAN as well as options to customize the access permissions. However, these stock functions are somewhat hidden and not very accessible for those with little technical experience.

For this reason, an application like NetworkOpenedFiles can help you send and receive files to/from other LAN-connected users in a simple and intuitive manner. To make things even easier, the program is portable, so once you download it, you can simple double click on it to launch it.

In the functional interface you can easily see all the users connected to the same network as you, the shared network resources and what each of them is able to access. The main window also shows the name of the opened files, the names of the remote PC and user, user permissions, file ID and file local data. On top of that, you can view the file timestamp, owner and attributes, although you can also customize the list to display only the information you’re interested in.

You can quickly disconnect any connected user by simply closing the opened file that’s currently selected, which means the program lets you fully control the access to shared resources. NetworkOpenedFiles allows you to copy all the data it displays to the clipboard, export it to a plain text file or an HTML document. The latter option can include all the information or just specific parts.
