[VLC Transfer]How to Transfer VLC Files to Android/iPhone/PC
You can download VLC media player to the current PC, then create a bootable USB drive or burn the installer to a CD/DVD. From there, you can transfer it to the offline PC using the USB drive or CD/DVD. Simply insert the USB drive or CD/DVD into the offline PC, run the installer, and follow the prompts to install VLC. This will allow you to install VLC on the offline PC without needing an internet connection.

#1. Using Qiling Disk Master Free
If you're looking for a reliable tool to transfer programs to a new computer, Qiling Disk Master Free can be a helpful solution. Unlike traditional methods like copy-paste or burning, this software is user-friendly and ensures data security, making the transfer process smoother. You can download the free version to get started.
To transfer VLC from one PC to another without the internet, you'll need to create a portable version of VLC on a USB drive. First, download the VLC installer on the first PC and run it to create a portable version.
Step 1. Create a backup image of installed apps
1. Launch Qiling Disk Master on your PC and go to "Backup & Restore", click "File backup" to continue.
2. To save a backup of the current system, click "Browse" to select a target location where the backup file will be saved. This allows users to choose a specific folder or drive where the backup will be stored.
3. To back up specific applications, navigate to the "Application" section of your backup software or tool, and select the applications you wish to include in the backup process. This will ensure that the data and settings associated with those applications are preserved during the backup operation.
4. Click "Proceed" to start creating the backup image of selected applications. When the process is complete, continue with Step 2.
Step 2. Restore apps from the created backup file
If the app exists on your PC, it won't restore the app image to your PC. You'll need to uninstall the existing one and then retry the process with the new guidelines.
1. Copy the backup file to your target computer, and then run Qiling Disk Master.
On the "Backup & Restore" section, click "Start" to continue, then select "Data Restore" as the transfer mode.
2. Click "Browse" to select the Qiling Disk Master image and click "OK" to proceed.
