# In your local computer's command terminal, make certain that you are in the '''local''' directory, and if not, change to that directory.<br><br>
# Issue the <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">dir</span> command for the '''local''' directory to confirm that you created the file called '''yourfile.txt'''<br><br>
# On your Windows desktop, point and '''double-click ''' on the<br>'''SSH Secure file Transfer''' application icon.<br><br>
# The main Secure Shell SFTP application window should appear.<br><br>'''FYI:''' This application shows files on your home computer (on the left-side) and files on your remote Matrix computer on the right-side. You will NOT see files<br>for your Matrix server since you have NOT logged into the Matrix server.<br><br>
# Click the '''Quick Connect''' button located in the Secure SFTP application window.<br><br>'''NOTE:''' The Connect dialog box allows the user to specify the '''server name'''<br>and your '''account name''' to allow you to connect to the server.<br><br>
# When you correctly connect to your Matrix account, you should see '''folders'''<br>in your remote server (i.e. Matrix server).<br><br>[[Image:graphical-sftp-application.png|thumb|right|250px|'''Click''' and '''drag''' file(s) to transfer between computers.]]
