I was just testing my game with the server test feature of studio and I noticed that in server window, the players' playergui and player scripts folders are empty. However, in the player's window, I can see the scripts, guis, etc. So I'm just wondering, is the server window supposed to not show those things?

Server isn't the same as player?

Directly from the Roblox Wiki:
PlayerScripts are not accessible to the server.
The same is true for PlayerGui; these two simply cannot be accessed and modified from the server. If you need to, then set up a remote event/fe-friendly way of accomplishing your goal.

Thanks for the answer. It makes sense now and maybe I’ll try a remote event.

Yes. If the server clones a gui and parents it to the player's playergui, it will able to see the gui clone.
