Help please. In filezilla server, it asked for password but no username

When I went to the filezilla client, it now asks for username which I have not yet set up.
Also I tried to use anonymous but still could not connect to server. help please. All I want is to be able to access my pc remotely from other pcs using filezilla. Any tips? thanks

Almost everything is wrong here.

That's only for connecting the admin interface to the server engine. You must still set up user accounts and resources in the settings, after.

See previous answer, you first need to create at least one user account in the server settings.
Also I tried to use anonymous but still could not connect to server.
Anonymous is just another user account that has first to be set up in the server, while requiring no password ("Do not require password to log in" selected).

You are trying SFTP, but FileZilla Server does not support SFTP (only FTP and FTPS).
No support requests over PM! You will NOT get any reply!!!
FTP connection problems? Please read Network Configuration.
