DC++ is compatible with all versions of Windows. The program works on a simple principle. You just need to connect to a hub (network server) to download files. All the necessary information is available from other users on the network. If you want, you can also open access to your files - to do this in the settings of the program you need to share the necessary folders on your computer. It was on the basis of DC++ that other DC network clients were written.
