Discover Files and File Browser


So… you’ve just launched your Private Cloud Server with Yundera.

Now you're wondering:

"Where do I store, upload, and manage my files?"

Yundera gives you two great ways to do it — one is already built in, the other unlocks powerful features.

Let’s walk you through them.


🔸 1. Files — The Built-in File Manager

Files is a simple file manager that’s pre-installed in your server via CasaOS.

No setup needed — just open it from the sidebar and start using it!

What you can do with Files:

  • Upload documents, photos, and smaller files
  • Create folders and organize content
  • Download files to your computer
  • Rename or delete with a click
  • Clean and fast interface, ready right away

This is perfect if you’re storing:

  • PDFs, text documents, notes
  • Personal images
  • App config files

But there’s one limit:

Files is great for casual use, but it’s not designed for large files like videos, backups, or collaborative folders.

🔹 2. File Browser — Power Up Your Cloud

When you're ready to go further, File Browser is the open-source app you’ll want.

You can install it in seconds from your Yundera App Store.

Once installed, it gives you a full-featured file management interface : like having your own Dropbox or Google Drive, but hosted by you. 


What makes File Browser different?

  • Upload and manage large files (movies, backups, projects)
  • Set up multiple users with different access rights
  • Preview files in your browser (media, text, code)
  • Brand the interface with your own logo and colors
  • Configure storage paths and access remotely

It’s the recommended app for:

  • Creators storing big media files
  • Teams managing shared folders
  • Power users replacing Dropbox or Google Drive
  • Anyone who wants control and flexibility

How to Use Both Together

  1. Start with Files:
    It’s already available. Use it to upload small files and navigate folders quickly.
  2. Install File Browser:
    Go to the App Store in your CasaOS dashboard. Search “File Browser” and click Install.
  3. Access your full cloud file manager at:
    yourdomain.nsl.sh:xxxx
    (File Browser will run on its own port)
  4. Optional:
    Set up different user accounts, configure directories, and explore advanced options from the File Browser FAQ.


Final Tip

You don’t have to choose — use both!

  • Files is quick, simple, and always there
  • File Browser is your full-featured personal cloud drive

With Yundera, it’s not about renting storage from someone else —

It’s about owning your cloud, and using the tools that fit you.

Welcome to real digital freedom. 🚀
