Samsung's media sharing experience for PC and Android.
Samsung Link, formerly known as Samsung AllShare allows you to run a media server from your personal computer and allows you to playback files on your local PC on other devices which support DLNA sharing like modern televisions, other PCs, smartphones and even different makes of camera.
Instead of having to use a cable to share multimedia, Samsung Link can do it all over a wireless network together with Samsung devices which may take advantage of media sharing. Smart TVs, Blu-ray players, cameras, camcorders and Samsung cell phones all fall within this category.
So if you have a Samsung device that can connect to a wireless WiFi network and it isn't too old, it should be able to access data from your network after Samsung Link has been installed. For Android users, they should check the Google Play store for the free corresponding app.

What version of Windows can Samsung Link run on?
Samsung Link can be used on a computer running Windows 11 or Windows 10. Previous versions of the OS shouldn't be a problem with Windows 8 and Windows 7 having been tested. It comes in both 32-bit and 64-bit downloads.
