To the best of my knowledge, it's a rather strong cipher, used widely (AES-256-CBC would be the weaker one).

You must copy the file "FileZilla Server.xml", not the one that ends with "Interface".

You could use a local copy of the site for testing. Alternatively, you can upload a duplicate of your site to the server, into a subdirectory. Example: Normal site at https://example.org/ Test copy at https://example.org/testing/ Note: If your site uses special features (like certain PHP software), ...

Files deleted on FTP servers are not recoverable. Unless the host still has a backup, they are permanently lost.

Having a backup at all times is essential, especially for FTP/SFTP, as there is no safety net.

Maybe transferred it as ASCII, by accident? See Data Type.

Do you have the Store version? There should be an option for granting directory permissions under the Edit menu.

The bottom port forwarding in your router is wrong (the 49153-65534). "Public door" 49153-65534 is correct, but the local port isn't. If you cannot enter the same port range as in "Public door", but only a single port, enter the first port of the range (49153) and the router will figure out the rest...

Does it work if you select the "Report external IP in PASV mode?

In Windows, deleted files first go to the Recycle Bin. Technically, they are moved and renamed, not deleted. Note that overwriting a file does not use the Recycle Bin, the old file is truly deleted. _____ Merely deleting a file from the file system should keep its directory entry intact (it gets a d...

FileZilla cannot do automatic or scheduled transfers at all. Neither does it contain any directory watchdog.

"Erasing" or "deleting" (excluding any delete sentry or recycle bin feature) a file means, in most OS, that the used clusters and the file system entry are simply being marked as free. Nothing is physically deleted, in the first place. That makes the files recoverable, at least on magnetic media whe...

We don't support that version of FileZilla, sorry.

Only the latest (3.46.3 ATM) binary downloaded from here, and a self-compiled version created from the unmodified source package (downloaded from here) are supported. For *buntu 18.0.4, you probably need to self-compile.

You must leave the (minimized) Interface process running, to get the icon, it's supposed to be that way. In the settings, set the Interface to startup minimized, so the window won't appear, only the icon.

Please note that FileZilla can store passwords, if desired. Furthermore, it can cache entered passwords for the session (means they are abandoned upon closing FileZilla). However, these are only the passwords FileZilla SENDS to the server. If the server actually authenticates using another password,...

@MassiveMastering: Please obey the forum rules. Putting URLs in posts, profiles or signatures is not allowed. Thanks. @botg: Just provide a generic "Customize URL copied to clipboard" feature. Don't restrict users in how and what they can modify. Sure, they need to be a bit creative by themselves, b...
