Bluetooth transfer to my PC

Our internet is down. I need to transfer a PDF from my phone to my Windows 10 laptop. I’ve connected the PC via Bluetooth to my phone. I don’t see the option to send the file via BT. Is there such an option?

Windows, Windows 10

Bluetooth file transfer Bluetooth file transfer - iPadOS to Android devices? As it is already possible to use Bluetooth tethering with an Android device, to provide an internet connection for an iPad, with the release of iPadOS 13 and subsequent updates, which added the capabilities to connect with external storage drives, is it possible to transfer files from an iPadOS device to an Android device over a Bluetooth connection?

Unable to file transfer from Android 13 to MacOS 13.1 (22C65) via bluetooth Sending files from Android 13 via Bluetooth has been working for over a year but recently stopped. When I try to send a file to the MacBook Pro M1 (MacOS 13.1), I get an error message in Outbound File Transfers on my Android device that says "Connection Unsuccessful". There have been a few MacOS updates as well as Android security patches, however, this used to work before. I checked that my phone is connected to MacOS via Bluetooth I re-paired my phone with MacOS I checked the Sharing|Bluetooth options and configured what to do when a file is received I verified that my phone can send files to my tablet and vice versa just fine Verified that using File Exchange I can send files from MacOS to my android device (so the connection is working) Has this been disabled with the latest version of MacOS? Thanks.
