Tips & Warnings

  • This method also works well for saving files faster.

  • If a file seems to take a long time to upload, it may be because it's a large file. For large files you may want to create a compressed or zip file.

  • If you send a lot of files on the web, numerous online file sending services are now available. They allow you to send large or numerous files. You can also track and secure their delivery.

  • For some reason, this feature only works with Microsoft Office applications.
