I managed to send files from my phone via bluetooth.

BUT.... where are these files stored??? In previous windows versions there was a Bluetooth Exchange Folder, but no such obvious place in Windows 8.

Please advise.

Thanks

    I have Windows 8.1 and I just stumbled on it, as Windows 8 used to just sent the files to a Blue Tooth folder.  In 8.1:

    • Right click on the blue tooth icon in the task bar
    • Click on Open Settings
    • Go the the Shared Folders Tab
    • A default location is listed for where the files will go, but you can create any folder and then designate this as the location for the files.
    • Click Apply
    • Click OK

    When you blue tooth your files they will go in this folder.

    Just can't find Bluetooth Folders anywhere
