If you don’t haveInternet Explorer on your PC already, download the latest Internet Explorer (you can delete/uninstall later).


Open up the Internet Explorer browser. It’s okay if this isn’t your MAIN browser.

To the right of the address/URL bar, you should see your Home button and the Settings gear. Click the gear to reveal a panel of options and click Internet Options.


NOTE: If your WA FTP details are still open in another browser, keep that browser open. If you ARE using IE however, keep the page/tab with your FTP details open.

Great training, Dawn! I've done this in years past but, this was a great refresher for me!

And, you included such a simple little fix for saved "bad passwords"...!

I commend you and hope that you do some more training to keep us out of website trouble!

Be used where instead of FileZilla? The instructions here can probably applied to any FTP application.

Thank you Littlemama, I was wondering what's the point of using FileZilla since we can access site directories through FTP connection, but probably may need to educate myself more in this particular area

Lesson 6 seems to be the core of logging into the ftp panel and making it work. Great tactics Dawn!
