Oxolan is a Windows and macOS app for sharing files between computers on a local network (LAN) — no cloud storage, no SMB setup. Every machine in one sidebar — over Ethernet or Wi‑Fi. Drag a file across, it moves at full network speed, encrypted, and never goes through the cloud.
Pick up any file. Drop it on the other machine — either direction. That's the whole product. Try it — this demo is live, the same engine that ships in Oxolan.

Yes. Oxolan uses its own peer-to-peer protocol instead of SMB, so the errors you see with shared folders (0x80070035, 0x80004005, network path not found, randomly disappearing computers) simply do not happen with Oxolan. SMB can stay on or off — Oxolan doesn't depend on it.
Only across your local network. Your files move directly between machines on your LAN and never go through the cloud — there's no sync server or cloud storage in the transfer path. Discovery, transfer, locking and search all run on your own network.
Oxolan transfers at your network's full LAN speed, so it's far faster than cloud sync — which is bottlenecked by your office's upload bandwidth. Wi‑Fi and slower switches lower the ceiling, but Oxolan always uses the maximum your hardware can deliver.
Transfers are encrypted (TLS 1.3, certificate-pinned) and go directly between machines on your LAN — never through a cloud server. There are no usernames or passwords to manage, and no file contents leave your network. Read our full security guide.
Yes — that's one of the main reasons people use Oxolan. Windows 10 ↔ Windows 11 SMB sharing has well-documented compatibility problems. Oxolan sidesteps all of them because it doesn't use SMB.
Yes. Oxolan runs on Windows 10, Windows 11, and macOS 12+ today — mixed Windows ↔ Mac offices work out of the box.
