It works just like any other removeable media.
It will show up as "removable drive" in "my computer".
From there, you just copy files onto the flash drive and paste them to the new computer.

a flash drive looks no different to a desktop than it does to a laptop. Generally, the process of a data transfer using the medium is no different than using a floppy disk.
You pop the drive into one computer's USB port, drop the files you need onto it, and then put the drive into the other system's USB port, and the data is now available to that one.

Flash memory is non-volatile. This means that it retains it's memory when you remove the power.
So whatever you copy onto the drive from the desktop stays there until you actively delete it.

Plug it into the USB port, and it shows up on the desktop as an external drive. Load what you need on it, eject it or pull it out, plug it into the other machine, take what you need off of it.
