Does Cloudless File Transfer need administrator rights?

Not Rated 0 votes Rate this answer

No. Cloudless File Transfer runs under standard user accounts without requiring elevated privileges. The automatic firewall feature may trigger a UAC prompt if it needs to modify firewall settings, but the core file transfer functionality works without admin rights.
