Pydio, formerly known as AjaXplorer, is an open-source file sharing and synchronization software that allows you to access your files from anywhere in the world. In this tutorial, we will guide you step-by-step on installing Pydio on your Windows 10 computer.
Before diving into the installation process, you'll need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
Head to the official Pydio website (https://pydio.com/) and download the latest version of the Pydio server for Windows. You will receive a file with a .zip extension that contains the Pydio installation files.
Once you have the zip file, extract its contents to a location on your computer that you can easily remember. You can use an application like WinRAR to extract your files.
Navigate to the extracted files and locate the bootstrap_server.bat file. Right-click on this file and choose "Run as Administrator".
Pydio will now start installing on your computer. The process may take a few minutes, depending on the speed of your PC.
After Pydio is installed, open your preferred web browser and enter the URL http://localhost/pydio. You should see the Pydio login page.
Enter your admin username and password, which you should have set during the installation process.
Congratulations! You have now installed Pydio on your Windows 10 computer, and you can start using it to access your files remotely.
