I recently purchased a new laptop that has Windows 10 Professional. Upon downloading the current version of filezilla I am able to connect and download files just fine. Uploading the files either are uploaded with 0 bytes or become corrupt if I use the plain ftp encryption. I have tried making sure that I have it set to send using binary, I even turned of the firewall and tried to upload files. It doesn't matter the result is still the same. The file cannot be opened. I have tried word documents, PDFs, PNGs, JPGs, etc. They all become corrupted or have 0 bytes depending on the encryption I use. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ang

Also, I forgot to say that it will say the upload is successful when using plain ftp, but as I said before the file will not open. I have also tried another Windows 10 Home computer that I have access to and it works just fine. I realize it is something to do with this specific computer, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

Re: uploads become corrupt on new Win 10 laptop
I finally found my issue. I had to update the wireless device's driver that was installed on this new computer within the device manager. For some they may have to uninstall and then re-start the computer and it will automatically find and re-install the driver.. Hopefully if someone else has this issue this will be a solution for them.

Make sure to use FTP over TLS, it protects against faulty networking hardware and software corrupting data: Any corruption results in a transfer error, no corrupt data is ever written to disk.
