If you’ve had problems sending very large files via the Internet, you may want to read more about Driveway. Driveway is a FREE online file sharing service and any system that is Internet-accessible and has a browser can be used for this purpose. There is NO NEED to register for an account, and you may start using Driveway right away.
To upload and download files:
- Select the files you wish to upload or download.
- Provide your e-mail ID (optional) if you’d like to receive the “Download” and “Delete” links by email. If you do not enter your email ID, you will not be able to download or delete the file.
- Depending upon your purpose of usage, click on “Send Files for Read” or “Send Files for Edit” option. If you had not entered your email ID, only the file read or file edit link would appear on the confirmation page. You can save these links for downloading the files anytime in future.
The next-best-thing is that you can upload multiple files with a maximum size limit of 500 MB per file! So with Driveway, you don’t have to split that PowerPoint presentation into a few smaller files, which was what I used to do back when the highest thumbdrive capacity was 128MB!
And if you’re done with the file and would like to delete it from the system or whatever, just enter your email ID when you uploaded the files and you will receive an email with links to download or delete the file. Click on the “Delete” link of the particular file and it will be deleted from the Driveway System immediately.
Please note that files are kept in the Driveway System for up to 90 days from the last date of access to the file. So if you don’t want your files to be scattered in the Internet, you might want to remember removing them after you’re done ![]()
