Hi guys

Is there any way to access Nextcloud files (self hosted) in a file manager just like a regular directory or remote location? So the way iCloud or Dropbox allow you to access files and use them for example to upload them in a browser. So far I only managed to access the files in the Nextcloud WebUI or via the command line (but then a resync is necessary).

Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

      That would not be equivalent to ‘remote location’, as the files would be stored locally on your computer and being synced with the cloud.

        The nextcloud client has the option to setup the folder as a virtual folder. this wouldn’t sync the files locally but would download them on first access, kind of like how OneDrive works. Would this not work for OP or did I miss read

      I did but that’s only syncing one folder if I’m not mistaken. I want to see everything though and if I make changes to files these changes should be synced back to the cloud.
