Install this app on two Thunderbolt 4 or 5 computers, connect them with a Thunderbolt cable, and you should be able to share screens, peripherals, and storage.
Why can’t you just plug a USB cable between two PCs, drag your mouse cursor between their screens, and drop files between them, as if they were a single machine? Well, you can and have for years — but Intel may be about to turbocharge that idea with Thunderbolt Share. It’s a proprietary app that Intel will be licensing to laptop, desktop, and accessory manufacturers to bundle with new hardware.
“USB 4 and Thunderbolt 3 connections may work, we just really don’t guarantee it, we won’t be providing support for it,” says Intel Thunderbolt chief Jason Ziller. But it does require the app, which Intel will charge OEMs an extra license fee to provide exclusively with new hardware.
