In this video we're going to take a look at how to manage your files inside of SmartFTP. For the
purpose of this demonstration have already established a connection to my remote server.
If you right-click on a file
you can choose to view it using the built-in browser.
You can also right-click on a file,
and open it with one of your installed programs.
Any change you make will not be uploaded because you opened it up for viewing only.
If you wish to edit a file, you can right-click on that file and select "Edit With" and choose any of your installed programs.
Here I will select WordPad.
Once I save my changes and close it, the file is uploaded back onto the server,
and if we view it...
you can see that the changes have been made.
You can move a file from one place to another simply by dragging and dropping.
You can also alter the permissions of a file or a folder by right clicking on it and selecting "properties".
choose the permissions tab
and apply your permissions to your liking.
Press the OK button when you're done and your permissions are set.
Congratulations, you now know how to manage your files inside of SmartFTP.
