Can I Share A Blender File With Another Device And Continue Working On It?
I'm using Blender to make a 3D model in my office, but I want to be able to work on it at home as well. Can I share a Blender file with another device and continue working on it? Or would I need to do it another way? Thanks in advance!

Yes, you can share a Blender file between devices and continue working on it, but you should make sure the version of Blender on both devices are the same to avoid compatibility issues.
Then, you can use e-mail or a USB drive to transfer those files. If it's too large and the e-mail way is restricted, you should resort to an external storage disk.
To make sure all assets, projects, and other significant data will be placed in the right place on your computer at home, it is recommended to use tools like EaseUS Todo PCTrans Professional to make an image file for all your wanted data.
Step 1. Open EaseUS Todo PCTrans, go to the "Backup & Restore" tab and click "Start."
Step 2. In "Data Backup," create a backup file for the data you want to transfer.
Step 3. Click "Finish" > "Backup." Then, you can put the backup file on your USB drive.
Step 4. Go home and connect the USB to your own PC.
Step 5. In EaseUS Todo PCTrans, go to "Data Restore," select the backup file on your USB, and click "Restore."
After the process, you can continue to work on your project in Blender.
By the way, transferring files between different operating systems (like Mac and Windows) generally does not affect the Blender file itself, as .blend files are platform agnostic. However, ensure that any file paths used in the project are valid on both systems.
