Can I make an ftp folder in Windows Explorer library?

Hi All,

W7-pro-x64-sp1

In Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer), is there a way
I configure something to click on in the left column that
would direct to an ftp site?

I can type in the address bar "ftp://bozo@server" and it
does work. I would just like something in the left column
for the user to click on.

Many thanks,
-T

You are in good luck. Yes, there is a way for you to add an ftp site to
the left column of Windows Explorer.

My W7's are cooperating. I have one XP that keeps trying
to run and ftp site in the web browser, no matter what I
click on in advanced settings. I will prevail!

Anyone let me know if you have this issue. I happens
on W7 too. I will send you the registry fix.

Why not just post it here. By the time someone reads this, you won't
be reading this group, and they will have nothing.

Okay.


Copy it into a text file with .reg as the extension. Then
double click on it
