The File Manager gives you direct access to files on any SSH server without leaving the browser. Browse the directory tree, open files in a built-in editor, drag and drop uploads, and perform all common file operations — all over a secure SFTP connection using the same credentials as your SSH hosts.

​
File browsing and navigation

Directory tree

Navigate the remote file system through a hierarchical directory browser. Expand and collapse folders to explore the structure of the remote host.

Recent files

Quickly return to files you have accessed recently without browsing back through the directory tree.

Pinned directories

Pin frequently visited directories so they appear at the top of your navigation for one-click access.

Keyboard shortcuts

Use keyboard shortcuts for common operations to navigate and manage files without switching to the mouse.

​
Viewing and editing files

The File Manager includes built-in viewers and editors for multiple file types. You do not need to download a file to view or edit it.
Open code and configuration files in a built-in editor (Monaco/CodeMirror) with syntax highlighting. Edit and save directly to the remote server.
Preview image files directly in the browser without downloading them.
Stream audio and video files from the remote server for in-browser playback.
View PDF documents in the browser using the built-in PDF viewer.

​
File operations

1

Upload files

Drag and drop files from your local machine onto the file manager window to upload them to the current remote directory.
2

Download files

Select any file and download it directly to your local machine.
3

Rename, move, and delete

Rename files and directories, move items between directories, or delete them — all from the file manager interface.

​
Sudo support

Some directories and files on a Linux server are only accessible as root. Termix supports sudo for privileged file operations — supply your sudo password once per session, and the file manager will use it automatically for operations that require elevated permissions.
Sudo operations send your password over the existing SSH connection to run privileged commands. Ensure you trust the host before providing sudo credentials.
Use pinned directories to keep quick access to paths like /etc, /var/log, or /home that you visit frequently across different sessions.
