Do we need a vps

Do we need a vps because right now we are using a vds to login to WinSCP but it won't let it save the edited files I made changes to. Like the file I edited won't show up on his file explorer where the file that I edited is not changed at all.

You are editing a file on the SFTP server. It won't automatically download to your friends machine. He has to download or synchronize it.

How to edit files that save on the persons computer

Me and my friend are creating a Fivem server for gta, and we need to use WinSCP so we can both edit the server files when we need to put something in there. He made the server so he did a sftp on WinSCP and dragged the server files in the WinSCP, so I can see them and edit them. But whenever I add something it doesn't save to the actual server on his computer. How do I make it to where when I add or edit something to the files that it will save on his computer and be in the server?
