Hey everyone.

I had to do a destructive system recovery to my Windows XP OS and I lost all my information and files. I redownloaded FileZilla however, when I put in my host's name it says:

530 Login Incorrect

It's not allowing me to login and I'm under the anyonomous setting currently. Any help? Thanks.

What do you mean give you some logs? lol.

Im not sure what login to use, I cant remember what I had. Im trying to sign in as an aynonomous user except Im not sure Filezilla will allow that because they already think I have a login name for that host, which I forgot. So, am I basically screwed or is there anyway to fix this?


Thanks!!

It seems the host you are connecting to do not allow anonymous logins, that's why you get that error 530. You need to connect with your login/pwd.

If you've lost your login/password for the host you are probably "screwed". But of course you could:

1. Contact the host and ask for you login/pwd if that's possible.

2. Use some sort of unformat/undelete utility to try and fetch filezilla.xml from your old Windows installation (Don't ask us how to do this, start with google.com and search).

Btw: filezilla.xml is hopefully the file where your old hostinformation were on your previous Windows installation.

Hope that helps you on your way.
