For connecting Android to a PC, there's a native remote desktop client made by MS (as well as the older 2X RDP client):

What I want is something that lets me do Android stuff off my phone when I'm on my laptop. Haven't seen a screen-sharing app in that direction.

I'm just reinstalling my home "server", using several suggestions from this post.

Thanks ^

You can download the adware-free version from the page that lists the clients for all platforms.

To confirm, check the download URL for "?nowrap" and the FZ logo on the downloaded setup.exe file (SF logo = adware).

Thanks for that info, although I'm so disgusted by Filezilla's responses to the complaints about the junked up version that I probably will not use it. I've been happy with Coffee Cup FTP for my very simple needs.
