Why Files-Share is different
Zero-knowledge encryption
Files are encrypted with AES-256-GCM in your browser before upload. The server only stores ciphertext — it cannot read your files under any circumstances.
No account, ever
There is no registration, no email verification, no password. Open the site and start sharing in seconds.
10GB free per session
Most free services cap at 2GB. Files-Share supports up to 10GB per session — enough for full 4K videos, large archives, and RAW photo collections.
Works on every device
Browser-based means it works on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, Chromebook, and Linux without installing anything.
Auto-deletes after 10 days
Files are permanently deleted after 10 days. No permanent storage, no data retention, no manual cleanup needed.
Real-time clipboard sync
The Share Text feature lets you sync clipboard content between devices instantly over encrypted WebSocket connections.

Yes — 100% free with no hidden fees, no ads on the download page, and no account required. Share files free up to 10GB per session.
→
What is the maximum file size?

Does the recipient need an account?
