FTP Client Installation
Download FileZilla Client
License agreement
Hopefully you should now see the following window where you will have to accept the terms of the license agreement to continue. Read through it and click “I Agree” if you do.
Installing for me or all users
You will now have to decide if you want to install only for your user account or if FileZilla should be accessible by every user on the machine. This mainly affects where the Start Menu icons are placed. Installing for all users needs administrative privileges, and every user will have his/her own settings.
Choosing components
Next you need to choose which parts of the FileZilla client you want to install. If you hover your mouse over a choice, FileZilla will show you a description of the item.
Go through all of them and just check/uncheck the stuff you want. Select additional languages if you want FileZilla in another language than English. Icon sets let you choose different looks for FileZilla’s icons (they are partly user contributed). The shell extension integrates FileZilla into the Windows Explorer. Most users will go with what’s selected by default here. When you’re all finished, click Next.
Install location
The next window will ask you where to install the program. If you don’t have any special needs, click Next.
Start menu shortcuts
Here, you will be asked what you want to name the folder with the shortcuts to FileZilla inside. The default name “FileZilla FTP Client” should be good for most people. You can also choose not to install these shortcuts
Finishing installation
When you click Install, FileZilla will get installed. If no errors occur it should complete in some seconds.
Completing Setup
When it’s done, click Next to finish the installation.
