Save files to your PS5

Download apps, homebrew, payloads and mod files through your running ezRemote Server. Prepare your download folder, choose a file and press Save to console. This companion never installs or runs downloaded files.

Press Detect mounted storage to read current USB / external device mount paths from websrv. No physical USB port labels are reported.

Prepare download folder opens the same installed companion through the running ezRemote Client (port 9090). Press Create there to create only missing whatwhatboy directories and verify existing ones. The client app must stay running; the background receiver alone cannot create folders. Internal storage defaults to /data/whatwhatboy. A supported USB HDD, SSD or flash drive must expose a writable file-storage mount. PlayStation Extended Storage is system-managed. Keep room for the download and an extracted or installed copy.

Open the installed local companion to read the receiver queue.

Receiver transfer queue

No queue status received yet.

Queue records and automatic retries belong to ezRemote. Use its native file manager to inspect a failed transfer or partial file; this page does not delete files or send automatic retry requests.

Ready files do not need archive extraction. PKGs still need installation, payloads need a compatible loader, and plugins, cheats or patches need their documented setup and supporting files. Original and prepared archives remain available under Archive files. Their extraction links open the running client’s preparation page; reviewed archives up to 32 MiB receive a checksum check before extraction into a new folder.

PS5 websrv must also be running on port 8080 for destination-folder checks and storage detection. A listing confirms existence, not free space or write permission. External-device mounts are rechecked for each save. “Receiver reports complete” reflects the receiver’s status. It does not verify the saved file’s hash or console compatibility. Keep the receiver running and follow each project’s firmware and installation requirements.
