It works alright for me on Windows. I have since also switched to local send because it's just so good. But quick share is also fairly decent last I checked.

Needs Intel WiFi / Bluetooth chipset. So it doesn't work on my AMD PC. And it doesn't find my phone on my surface pro 7.

Alright. I didn't know you needed an intel wireless chipset. Not sure why it matters if you use an AMD CPU though. Does AMD even make wireless chipsets?

My PC have an Intel wireless chipset and an AMD CPU.

If it's a laptop the wireless chipset would be part of the SOC, so I would assume that AMD does some variant of a chipset for that.

No, the wireless chipset is most frequently on a card or sometimes soldered somewhere else on the board.

Oh interesting. My mistake!
