File sharing over the internet is the most common and best-known application of peer-to-peer networks. That’s how users can download games on online gaming platforms.
Several Linux operating systems can be distributed through a peer-to-peer network. Ubuntu, Manjaro and Linux Mint can all be downloaded via BitTorrent using peer-to-peer file transfers.
In Windows 7 and Windows 8 (version 1), you can create a network between a pair of computers, which is a peer-to-peer network that’s ideal for quick file sharing.
