# File transfer support in the WorkSpaces client applications
Using file transfer

You can upload and download files on local computer and your **My Storage** folder if your WorkSpaces administrator has enabled file transfer.

You can do the following with your **My Storage** folder:
+ Open and edit files and folders that you store in your **My Storage** folder.
+ Upload and download files between your local computer and your **My Storage** folder.
**Note**  
If you're unable to do this, contact your WorkSpaces administrator to enable file transfer within your WorkSpaces session.
+ Rename the files or folders in the **My Storage** folder.

**Note**  
File transfer is currently supported on personal Windows WorkSpaces when using the Windows or Linux client application, or web access. Contact your administrator if you have questions.
