- This video will show you how to set up an FTP server on Windows 10 to transfer files on your local network. This can be extended to work over the internet, but you will need to set up port forwarding and dynamic DNS.
The software you need is Filezilla server from filezilla-proj...
When it installs, you can leave everything as default, the only one you might want to change is if it starts with Windows or not.
Once installed, just click on the icon at the top that looks like a single face. Here you can create a user on the right, by hitting add. Give the user a name, and leave the group empty. Then hit ok.
Once the user is added, you can choose to add a password by clicking the check box in the middle for password, then typing in a password.
Then go to the shared folders tab on the left. Here hit add to add a folder to the FTP share, the first one will be your home folder. Choose whatever folder you want to share from the browse window.
After selecting the folder, choose the permissions you want for that user. By default they only have read file, but if you want them to be able to add new files check write on the right.
Now you just need to use your IP address on any other computer on the network to connect.
FInd you IP address by searching cmd and going to the command prompt, and typing ipconfig. Then you should see your IP address listed as IPV4 address.
Go to any other computers file window (or browser) and type in ftp://YOURIPADDRESS
This will prompt for the username and password you created. Once entered, you can use the folder (depending on permissions) as if it was a folder on your local computer to share files over the network.

doent work on my windows 7 laptop even after disabling firewall, does work on my Windows 10 PC.
just downloaded a free app from appstore, way easier than this.
software does not seem to have the same functions as when this video was made, can not get it to work, no option to share folders etc
[Solution] Turn off any firewall on your server pc. BTW, many many thanks for the tutorial
this doesnt work on my network. one pc is on ethernet one is on wifi connected to the same modem. pinging one from the other on both ip4 and ip6 gives "Destination host unreachable"
unable to connect. always showing "could not login to the FTP server with the user name and password specified
Great share, please how can i set it up to connect to files from home with port forwarding?
thanks a lot for this tutorial
thanks for the straightforward and quick tutorial
Tnx
How big is transfer speed when you want to move large items from one pc to other on local ftp network? Atm I am using Local Network and my transfer speed peeks at around 2 MB/s, could this make my trasnfer faster? :/
I think it depends on your network connection.I connected my phone and I get speed around 4-5 MBps
Didn't work for me until I turned off the windows firewall of the local network on the ftp server pc
Thanks for share. It really helped me
Pls add ftp to firewall,,,,,,,an option will be the {ALLOW AN APP THROUH FIREWALL}
Nice tutorila just what I was looking for. Thanks!
Tutorilla!
I can't connect with my mobile, do you know why?
But you can connect with other devices? Likely your mobile browser does not support FTP, you may need to download a separate app to connect to it
Thx for the fast answer, I already fixed it btw.
