Troubleshooting • VNC File Transfer greyed out and VNC is flaky

$

I just got a brand new Raspberry Pi 5 and installed the default (64-bit) OS on it using the Raspberry Pi Imager. So, I am running Bookworm but I am used to working with Raspberry Pi 3B+ with Buster. I was able to enable VNC in preferences and have also installed all updates. Nothing else installed.

I wanted to transfer some of my standard files so I fired up my RealVNC Viewer (Version 6.21.406) - which of course works just fine with all my older Raspberry Pis. However, when I connect to the Pi 5 it says "WayVNC" in the title bar. And in the top left menu, the Transfer files option is greyed out. Also, when I connect to the Pi, I find the connection to be flaky and VNC freezes every now and then - the directly connected keyboard and mouse work fine.

Any pointers?
