System requirements

LanSend is a native 64-bit application that sends pop-up messages to Windows PCs across your local network. This page lists the operating systems it runs on, the minimum hardware, and what you need on the network to deliver a message.

Supported operating systems

LanSend runs on the 64-bit editions of:

• Windows 11
• Windows 10
• Windows Server 2022
• Windows Server 2019
• Windows Server 2016

The same list covers both the machine you run LanSend on and the machines you send to.

Minimum hardware

• 1 GHz CPU
• 512 MB RAM
• 50 MB free disk space

What you need to send a message

LanSend uses the built-in Windows Terminal Services (WTS) messaging channel, so nothing is installed on the recipient and there is no server to set up. To reach a target PC you need two things:

• Network reachability to that PC over the local network.
• Administrative rights on the target.

Once those are in place, you can compose a message and send it from the main window.
