Next we will explain to you the detailed operation method of Win10 to build FTP server.

1、First, we search the control panel in Cortana and enter.

2、In the control panel – program, click enable or close the Windows function;


3、Check in front of the FTP server, Web management tools, and the Web core that Internet Information Services can host, click OK, and wait for installation.


4、After installation, search for computer management and access in Cortana.


5、Find the service and application – Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager on the left, and click Enter. You can see your computer name in the Connection column (DESKTOP-LEU8V22 in short) and click the counterThe expansion button on the left side of the computer name is right-click on the website and choose to add FTP site.

6、At this point, you will enter the FTP site to add the wizard. First of all, the wizard will ask you to fill in the FTP site name and set up the FTP content directory. The FTP site name can be filled in as you like.The clip is C:\inetpub\ftproot.

7、After completing the FTP site name and setting up the FTP content directory, click the confirm button and click next.
8、After clicking on the next step, don’t rush to continue, let’s check the computer’s IP address, search the command prompt in Cortana and enter;

9、Enter the command ipconfig, return, and you’ll see your computer’s IP address. The IP address here is 192.168.1.251. Remember this number and use it later.

10、We go back to the FTP site to add the wizard, set up the binding and SSL. IP address bar input just check the IP address, the port remains unchanged 21, enabling virtual host name items can not be checked, automatically start FTP site can be checked, SSL can choose no SSL, after the completion of the operation click NextStep;

11、Next, the FTP Site Add Wizard will ask you to fill in authentication and authorization information, check the anonymous and basic check boxes under authentication, allow access items to be set to all users, check the check boxes before reading and writing permissions, and click Finish.

12、At this point, we can see that the FTP site has been created successfully and run normally.

13、But this is not over. We have to allow the FTP server to go through the firewall. Search for firewall in little Na, click access to allow application through Windows firewall;


14、Check the check box in front of the FTP server in the list, and check the two small boxes in the back, then click OK to complete the settings.

15、At this point, you can test your FTP server. Find Internet Explorer in the -Windows appendix, click enter;

16、Enter ftp://[IP address of your computer] in the address bar (short edition: ftp://192.168.234.136) and return to visit. If you see a list of files and folders in your browser, congratulations, your FTP server has been built successfully.

17、Of course, you can also enter the address of your FTP server in File Explorer.

18、Test the transmission speed, and it can be much faster than the 4M small water pipe.

19、Some students may ask, my FTP content directory has some content that I do not want others to see, how can I prevent others in the LAN who know my IP address from seeing the files in my FTP content directory? Very simple, we set up the FTP permission rule. First, in CortANA search computer management and access;

20、Expand the local users and groups on the left side of the window, click the user, you will see the list of users on the right side of the window, right-click the blank space, click the new user, at this time the new user will create a window pop-up;

21、User name and full name can choose what you like to fill in, password can choose your favorite settings, the next user login to change the password before the check box is canceled, check the user can not change the password and password will never expire before the check box, after the completion of the operation, click Create, the user is created. Xiaobian needs two users.The FTP server is assigned access rights, so the editor creates two new accounts, ftpUser1 and ftpUser2.

22、After the new user is created, we go back to the Computer Management – Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager to manage our FTP site, and click on the “Computer Name” – Web site – – the FTP server you just built.This is THINKCENTRE – Website – FTP Server, double-click the FTP authorization rules icon on the right, enter the FTP authorization rules settings window, you can see, at this time read and write permissions for all users;


23、We delete this item and click the add permission rule in the action bar on the right.

24、You’ll see the Add Allow Authorization Rules window. We select the user who is allowed to access this content as the specified user, then fill in the user name of the new user you just created, check the check box before reading and writing permissions, and click OK to add when the operation is complete. Xiaobian added two permitted access to FTP content.The users are ftpUser1 and ftpUser2 respectively.


25、We will test it on other devices in LAN.

26、Fill in the username we set when creating a new account. Fill in the password we set when creating a new account. Click on Login when the password is completed.

27、In fact, there are many FTP server building options available, and the cost of building FTP server through Microsoft Windows built-in solutions is relatively low. In addition, you can choose other FTP solutions, such as Serv-U, which is more powerful.

28、After a period of trial, I found that Serv-U is good everywhere, only a little bit to keep me away – expensive. If it’s for personal use, it may not be a good idea to buy such advanced software at a high price.

The above is Win10 FTP server to build the operation method, although the tutorial is long, but the method is not difficult, as long as everyone patiently follow the tutorial step-by-step operation can be, after the completion of the building, then want to transfer large files more convenient.
If the above configuration firewall is still unable to access the FTP server, it will be modified according to the following method.
Method 1:
New rules are created on the firewall’s inbound rules, allowing the C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe program to be opened. Once built, programs with the same name appear in the list of WINDOWS firewalls that allow applications or functions to pass through the firewall.
Method 2: To add C: Windows System32 svchost.exe program to the control panel all control panel items Windows Firewall permissible applications, the name of the main process of the Windows service will be generated, and at the same time in the fire preventionThe process of homonymous generation in wall entry rules.
Note: whether the FTP port is open in the firewall does not affect the login of the FTP server.
