SSHFS-Win is a minimal port of SSHFS to Windows that lets users mount remote SSH/SFTP directories as local network drives. It uses Cygwin for the POSIX environment and WinFsp for FUSE functionality, integrating with Windows Explorer and `net use`.

Use cases

  • mount remote ssh directory as windows drive
  • map sftp server to a drive letter in windows explorer
  • access remote files over ssh on windows
  • mount linux server filesystem on windows
  • browse sftp files as a local network drive

When to choose

  • you need to access remote SSH/SFTP files as a native Windows drive
  • you want Explorer and net use integration for remote filesystems
  • you prefer a simple installer-based SSHFS solution on Windows

When to avoid

  • you are on Linux or macOS where native SSHFS exists
  • you need high-performance or reliable production file sharing rather than convenience mounting
  • you cannot install kernel-level dependencies like WinFsp
