Managing Files via the Game Panel

The built-in File Manager in the OXY.Games control panel makes it easy to manage your game server files.
This guide shows you how to browse, edit, upload, delete files and more — step by step.

⚠️ Note: The File Manager is ideal for smaller tasks like editing configs or uploading files quickly.
For large files or advanced workflows, we recommend using an SFTP client like FileZilla.

The File Manager has a 100MB upload limit. With SFTP, there is no limit.

Click Files in the left-hand menu.

Step 2 – Explore your folders and files​

You’ll see the root directory of your server, including folders like world, plugins, and logs, and files like server.properties, eula.txt, and ops.json.
