i run the code but it is not working

@SirErnest what was the error or the output? Have you try to run it with Python 2.7 or higher? Are you using Windows, Linux which OS?

Provide me more infos and may i or somEbody else is able here to help you out. :)

Check this out. File tranfer via socket. It is the easiest code https://youtu.be/SZyd7xGTBkw

Is this OS is linux?

@kimakuma no this is on Windows but i remember that is running also in Linux maybe with a few changes.
@hightTest nice thank you

The file transfer for large files is slow as hell of course if we can make it faster it could be good. Please check it guys

where does it save the file ?

In the same path as your script is running. But you can change that with a few lines of code <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=link> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> Στις Πέμ, 25 Μαρ 2021 στις 4:17 μ.μ., ο/η Darthveloper21 < ***@***.***> έγραψε:

Does this work on python 3.8? I can't quite seem to get it working (even when fixing the print statements).
