Is there a way to automate bluetooth file transfers?
I would like to automate sending a file from my Windows XP laptop to my cellphone using bluetooth. Is there a way to run the bluetooth file transfer wizard from a batch file? Or are there other command line utilities that can do a bluetooth file transfer? If anyone has a suggestion, I would appreciate it. Thanks,Peter1 person needs an answerI do too

Hi PeterY123,To my knowledge, I have not seen such tool that you can do it from command line. Probably you need to have custom tool that can do it for you. Since security involved, you need to change the key and so on.However you can try this from the command prompt: "%PROGRAMFILES%\Bluetooth manufacturer\Bluetooth Stack\WirelessFTP.exe" /SimpleSend /F"Sending to Phone" /B%phone% "%file%" "Sending to Phone" is the title of the status window that opens.%phone% is the MAC Address of the target phone%file% is the path to the file.You can give this a try and see if it works.If this doesn’t work, you may contact your Phone manufacturer for further assistance.Regards,Manasa P – Microsoft Support.

Hi Manasa, Thanks for the quick response. However I cannot find a Wirelessftp.exe program on my system. I am using the Microsoft bluetooth stack. Peter
