Subtitle: Mount your remote servers as local drives with the latest version of this essential utility.

If you work with remote servers, you know the friction of transferring files. Constantly switching between an FTP client and your local file explorer, dragging and dropping—it works, but it isn’t seamless.

SFTP Drive v3 solves this by mounting your remote server as a native local hard drive on your Windows machine. You can open, edit, and save files directly on the server using your favorite local applications (VS Code, Notepad++, Photoshop, etc.).

In this post, we will walk through the installation and initial configuration of SFTP Drive v3.
