Wi-Fi Direct is much faster than Bluetooth, but the downside is that it isn't as universally available across devices like Bluetooth is. Wi-Fi Direct is similar to Bluetooth, except files are sent and received directly over Wi-Fi instead.

For Bluetooth to work, both the sending and receiving Windows computer must be Bluetooth-compatible.
