FZilla 0.9.60 beta on Windows 10

[pderwael]

Hi all,

I have set up FileZilla server on a Win10 PC in order for 2 Linux clients to FTP down some updates every now and then
All on the LAN (therefore no NAT related issue) 192.168.1.x
The server is started/stopped manually
I can FTP up/down from the Linux boxes without any problem

Basically, my issue is that, as soon as I change anything in the server config through the GUI, the server stops and the config is not kept

2 examples:
- changing a user dir: I click "users - shared folders - add <any directory> - OK", i get the message "Connection to server closed." on the GUI and the config is not kept
- In order to troubleshoot the above, I wanted to enable logging, but the same thing happens: "Edit - Settings - Logging - Enable Logging - Ok" --> again "Connection to server closed." and no config is kept

I guess this is due to the "security" specs of Win10... any idea on how to circumvent this ??


Thanks :=)


BTW; this is FileZilla Server 0.9.60 beta and KB4338818 is NOT installed

Open the Start menu and type "controlled". There will be a setting "Controlled folder access". If it is On, set to Off, then try again.

Done that and got the following: Your IT administrator has limited access to some areas of this app, and the item you tried to access is not available. Contact IT helpdesk for more information

The funny thing is that I'm the only user of this PC and I'm admin... pfff....

Sounds like a Group Policy in place. I need to get my hands on a Win10 machine and check.
