I'm not sure what you are trying to do. Do you want to transfer files from one computer to another, while one is running Windows and the other Linux? Or do you run both operating systems on one computer (dual boot) and try to share files there?
In the first case, you need to share a file system on one of the computers and mount it from the other one. Since all Linuxes come with a sshd daemon of any kind, the easiest thing you can do is using WinSCP to share files.
In the latter case, you could mount the ntfs partition *readonly* on your linux environment and copy ahead... in that case, consider creating a spare partition using FAT32 file system, which can be read and written by both OS.

I'm assuming that you're doing this on a dual-bootable computer & Linux cannot access the Windows partition.
In this case, I copy the file from Linux onto a removable drive (like a USB thumbdrive) & then copy the file from the removable drive into Windows. Alternatively, you could use online space to achieve the same results.
All you're doing is moving a file from computer to computer (or from one OS to another), there's nothing special to it... people online do this practically all the time without thinking.

If the 2 machines are on the net, one way is to attach the file to an email and send it from the linux machine to the windows machine.
If you are talking about a single machine with 2 disk partitions (unix and windows), then emailing the file to yourself, from the unix 'machine' to the windows 'machine', is often still the easiest way, if you don't want to learn about installing any new file-transfer programs.

Transfer in the sense of File Transfer from one PC to Other or any other.
If file transfer you need to configure Apache or any other server in the linux machine.
