Microsoft has discontinued its PC-to-PC transfer tool for Windows 11, which allowed file transfers over Wi-Fi or LAN without using OneDrive. The company has shifted its focus to the Windows Backup solution that relies on OneDrive for file storage. Users must now restore backups linked to their Microsoft accounts and retrieve synced files via OneDrive, which has a 5GB storage limit for free accounts. The PC-to-PC transfer tool, tested in July 2025, enabled users to transfer documents, photos, videos, and user settings locally, but did not support the transfer of saved passwords, credentials, or installed applications.
An unofficial PC port of the Nintendo GameCube game Super Smash Bros. Melee has been released. The game, originally launched in 2001, features a unique damage system, various attack types, and diverse stages. It includes several game modes such as Classic Mode, Adventure Mode, and Event Matches, with unlockable characters and content. The PC version supports keyboard and gamepad inputs, allows for resolution adjustments and visual customizations, but lacks online play and widescreen support. Users need to provide their own ROM to play. This release is part of a trend of unofficial PC ports of classic games, including titles like Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
Android users can now transfer passwords and passkeys between supported password-manager applications without using export files. The transfer process starts in the receiving app, where Android identifies other installed password managers, allowing users to select and authorize specific data for transfer. This new functionality supports both passkeys and conventional passwords, taking only a few seconds to complete. Prominent password managers like Google Password Manager, 1Password, Bitwarden, and Dashlane support this feature, which is available on devices running Android 8 or later. The transfer mechanism maintains the security model of passkeys during authentication while facilitating the exchange between trusted managers. Recent research has identified potential vulnerabilities in synced Google passkeys, emphasizing the need for strong device security measures.
The process of transferring passwords and passkeys between supported applications on Android has been streamlined, allowing for direct transfers between compatible password managers without the need for exporting data to unencrypted files. Android's built-in password manager facilitates these transfers by automatically detecting compatible managers on the device. This new capability is available for devices running Android 10 or newer with the latest Play Services update, while Bitwarden users need Android 14 or later and Play Services version 26.21 or higher. The introduction of the Cross-Platform Transfer (CXP) feature enhances security and encourages the adoption of passkeys, which have seen a 500% increase in creation according to Bitwarden. Nearly half of all passkeys were generated in the past three months. Google plans to add more partners to this feature in the future.
