Quick n Easy FTP Server is a simple program that allows creating an FTP server on Windows machines.

FTP servers are computers dedicated to hosting files of all types and making them available to users via the Internet. Unlike the HTTP servers that allow users to navigate through web pages, FTP servers are designed to allow users to download files of any type: documents, multimedia, programs, compressed files, etc.
Without a doubt, FTP servers are increasingly into disuse due to the multitude of existing services that allows sharing files with other users. Even so, we can create an FTP server easily, and thanks to the program that we will analyze, we will be able to do it quickly and for free.

Quick n Easy FTP Server is designed so that any user can use it because it includes a configuration wizard that assists us in the process of setup correctly the software, so we only need to fill in the details without having to worry about endless navigation menus and options.

So it is only necessary to click on the “Launch FTP Setup Wizard” option, and leaving the default options will be enough to configure our FTP server.
Then, we need to create a user with access to the FTP files. To do this, we must press “Launch User Account Wizard” and fill in the data. We will be able to assign a different access level to the added users, allowing users to download files, upload files, rename or delete files, and create directories. This makes it possible to create users with different privileges so that users with minor privileges cannot delete or upload malicious files to the FTP.

Now as it's only necessary to configure the basic settings of the FTP: maximum global connections, maximum IP connections, welcome message, auto-start at Windows boot, and limited time to disconnect.

To launch the FTP, click on the “play” button, which is located in the upper left of the screen. We need to accept that Windows allows the program to access the Internet, and automatically our computer will become an FTP server that accepts connections on the 21port. In this way, we can share the address of our computer with friends to allow them to access the files we have decided to share via FTP.

The program has different sections to display FTP statistics. We will be able to see the users that are connected at a given time, see the actions that are taking place in the FTP, or view the log with the number of connections that have been established, the number of downloads, the number of sent/received kilobytes, etc

The program is very simple to use and does not require any installation since the executable file comes compressed within a .zip file, so we only need to unzip the file and launch the program.

The version that we offer is the lite version that, despite having more reduced features compared to the paid versions, allows us to create FTP servers fully operational and without complications. The lite version is free for non-commercial purposes so that we can use it for personal use without any limitation or restriction.
