Can you transfer window files to this laptop? null

Yes, the Mac comes with softwares built-in that are compatible with almost all of the most commonly used everyday file formats -- i.e. PDF, docx, xlsx, pptx, jpg, png, etc. The only limitations that come immediately to mind would be if you use certain Office apps like Microsoft Access or Microsoft Publisher (as these are not available on Mac, natively, but can be run thru virtualization using software like Parallels Desktop for Mac). Hard drives that were formatted for Windows can be read on Mac (meaning you can open any of the files) but if you make changes to the files you may need to save them onto your Mac for those changes to stick. There's a newer hard drive format called exFAT that is cross-compatible with Mac and Windows with no extra software needed. NTFS (the default for Windows) you can get to work on a Mac with third-party software.

Of course, yo can transfer any kind of files, FI you install the right software in it.
