I was looking for some help on using straight FTP instead of my usual Dreamweaver or File Manager from my Web Server Dashboard, and came across this wonderfully clear explanation from Host Gater, who also hosts websites, so if you happen to be “driving by” this post, this will be a useful site:
“Microsoft has developed an easy way for you to connect and upload files to your website. This guide will walk you through connecting to an FTP account using Windows Explorer.”

This was helpful since Windows 10 has changed our experience with FTP.
