Hi Everyone

I have just installed FreeFileSync on my computer and I can't find anything to do with FTP in it. I seems like it is just for local syncronisation.

How do I access the FTP settings?

Thank you very much.

Kind regards

Tim

I've never used FTP settings myself but to access them do the following:

(1) In the main FFS GUI look for the the Browse button - which be available for the Source and Destination paths. These buttons are shown to the right of path display settings for the source and destination paths.

(2) Next to the Browse buttons you will see another button which has a Google Drive\Cloud symbol. When you hover the mouse over that button it will show a dialogue saying, "Access online storage". Click on that button and in the dialogue window that opens you can make whatever FTP settings you want to use.

Manual page explaining some of the settings is here: https://freefilesync.org/manual.php?topic=ftp-setup
