Are you wanting to install some kind of service on the remote computer, or do you have credentials to access the computer?

Most likely, that would be the way, but I would not be so sure that OP needs exactly the access to the files, as this is the usual misconception. I would ask about the ultimate purpose.

Anyway, I answered in some more detail and credited your advice, please see.

Please see Ron's comment to the question. As these are files, it could be some available service, first of all, FTP.

If you really want to write your own application (who knows? maybe you need to have some other features?), you can do it on several different levels of networking, from raw sockets to classical .NET remoting or WCF. Please see my short overview of some of those levels in my past answers:

Communication b/w two Windows applications on LAN.[^].
