Ideal. Having full access to your PC from your phone is very convenient. However, it's pretty annoying how you can't just copy files from remote device and need to open them and then save to location on your device.

SMB v2/3 is broken, "Bad SMB2 signature for message". Must force server to accept the older insecure SMB v1, which has been disabled by default in newer versions of samba.

This works perfectly for reading and cutting. However, for writing or pasting, it does not appear at all. All of the bookmarks that use the LAN are shown for cutting but disappear for pasting. Is there something I'm missing?

The only decent samba client I could find. Another review says it does not work on Android Pie, but it does for me. Feedback: (if possible) it would be awesome if the plug-in optionally also mounted samba shares at a custom file system path to be accessed from other apps when TC is running in background. It is not really the job of a plug-in, I know, but as mentioned I can not find another implementation that works well (with samba v2).

It simply works. I am not a computer professional so It took me a bit of trial and error to learn how to properly set up a windows share and connect to it with proper user name and password. Once I got it I put a shortcut on my phone! Now its a one button push to browse my computer hard drive. Well done C.G. There are support forums for Total Commander (and his plug ins) if your having issues.

Thank you! This plugin makes it simple to access LAN PC shares from mobile phone. Browse LAN shares. File copy over WiFi between phone and PCs. File transfers are at WiFi network speed. My Wireless AC 5GHz network . This app uses SMB 2 protocol which is much more secure than apps using SMB 1. I have tried many apps to allow phone to connect to LAN PCs using SMB 2 or 3/ Previous apps had major limitations. This app allows my phone to connect to network devices as easily as I can connect two computers.

About this app

This is a Plugin for Total Commander for Android!
It does not work standalone!

Do NOT install if you do not use Total Commander!

IMPORTANT: If you cannot connect to your server with version 3, then your server probably doesn't support the SMB2 protocol.
Solution: Please open the connection settings by long tap on the connection name. Then disable SMB2. This will use the old SMB1 protocol. Normally the plugin should detect automatically when a server doesn't support SMB2, but some NAS devices seem to react differently.

New features

3.50:
- Fixed problems changing connection settings on Android 14
- Fixed crashes
