Hi,

How would I transfer files from my pi to my computer via SSH?

Look up SCP. In simple terms, it's a copy command using SSH protocol.

Code: Select all

scp --help
man scp
If you want to transfer between a Windows PC and Pi, check out WinSCP.
My mind is like a browser. 27 tabs are open, 9 aren't responding,
lots of pop-ups...and where is that annoying music coming from?

Or in the file manager on another machine press ctrl-l and then enter sftp://pi@192.168.1.100/ or whatever the IP address of the Pi is.
