The Source
- We got it from here
- winFsp Newest GitHub version
- winSshfs Newest GitHub version
Install the files
- You will need to unzip the files I have loaded here.
- If you do not understand what is meant by zip and unzip then quietly close this page and go back to your facebook account.
- If you get the newer ones linked above they will be executable.
- We recommend 7zip as it is by far the best free and maintained program for compression and uncompression.
- Note the file dates. You can always click the above link to get the newest.
- Just unzip them and double click on them and say yes.
- winSfp
- Sshfs
Get connected
- Open File Explorer, right-click on This PC and choose Map network drive.
- Choose a drive to mount at and in the Folder field enter:
\\sshfs\yourRemoteLogin@remoteComputer
- By default, Windows will use your Windows password or credentials for the remote computer.
- If the password or credentials are different on the remote computer then choose the "Connect using different credentials option."
- They most definitely are different.
- Windows will ask for your password at the remote computer. After that the home directory from your remote computer will be mounted at the Windows drive you chose. I found that I had full read-write access to the files mounted from remote.
Some additional Notes
Be careful as you have full read and write access This is not a folder on your computer that you can delete from on a whim | Here is an additional link that is helpful.
