Desktop v4 vs Desktop v6
Desktop v6 app is the latest and most advanced desktop app from Files.com. It supports high speed transfers for large files, large file sets, and bulk operations. It also offers drive mounting on Windows, allowing users to access their Files.com content directly from File Explorer. This makes it ideal for both performance intensive workflows and interactive access, all in a single app.
We continue to support Desktop v4 for current customers who rely on it, and for macOS users who need drive mounting through Finder, as this feature is not yet available in v6 on macOS.
Files.com is actively working to bring drive mounting to v6 for macOS and is aiming to fully move forward with Desktop v6 as the standard experience for all current and future customers.
