The file transfer functionality can be activated via the NX toolbar, the NX Player tool which allows the user to change settings of the session and run any of the available services. Via that GUI, the user can select the remote file to be transferred from within the session to the local desktop and vice-versa.

A status panel shows the progress of all transfer operations and allows the user to interrupt transfer if required, and also resume at a later stage. This is useful in the case of unexpected session closure.
