How to use mail drop on windows

Mail Drop is a feature in macOS that allows you to send large files or files that are too big to send via email by uploading them to a temporary cloud storage space and sharing the link with the recipient. While Mail Drop is not available on Windows, you can use alternative methods to achieve similar functionality. Here are a few options:

Method 1: Use a cloud storage service

You can use a cloud storage service like Google Drive, Dropbox, or Microsoft OneDrive to upload your files and share the link with the recipient. Here's how:

  1. Create an account with a cloud storage service.
  2. Upload your file to the cloud storage service.
  3. Right-click on the file and select "Get link" or "Share" to generate a shareable link.
  4. Copy the link and send it to the recipient via email or messaging app.
  5. The recipient can then download the file from the cloud storage service.

Method 2: Use a file transfer service

There are several file transfer services available that allow you to send large files, such as WeTransfer, File.io, or SendSpace. Here's how:

  1. Go to the file transfer service website.
  2. Upload your file to the service.
  3. Fill out the recipient's email address and any additional information required.
  4. Click "Send" to send the file to the recipient.
  5. The recipient will receive an email with a link to download the file.

Method 3: Use a Windows built-in feature

Windows 10 has a built-in feature called "OneDrive Files On-Demand" that allows you to upload files to OneDrive and share the link with others. Here's how:

  1. Make sure you have a Microsoft account and OneDrive installed on your Windows 10 device.
  2. Right-click on the file you want to share and select "OneDrive" > "Upload to OneDrive".
  3. Select the folder where you want to upload the file.
  4. Right-click on the uploaded file and select "Get link" to generate a shareable link.
  5. Copy the link and send it to the recipient via email or messaging app.
  6. The recipient can then download the file from OneDrive.

These methods may not be as seamless as Mail Drop, but they can help you send large files or files that are too big to send via email on Windows.
