FileZilla on Windows 11
SolvedneR -
Hello everyone,
I have personal pages on FREE, updated via FileZilla, it has been working for years, but since mid-November, I can no longer update it under Windows 11;
however, it works well under Windows 10
do you have any ideas?
thanks in advance

Hello,
You can try using the other version of FileZilla... the "Portable" version for example.
You can also use it in "Compatible" mode... or stick with Windows 10.
I am not using a Free personal page but Orange, which suggests a problem with the encryption mode settings: with Orange "Use Explicit FTP over TLS if available", port unspecified 21 by default, Logon Type "normal", Advanced "default" (be careful if there is an explicit Proxy or if your protection software creates one, even when disabled, there is always some background activity), Transfer Settings "Default" and Charset "Autodetect".
Your screenshot shows us that the server may not support the security mode you have chosen (it might not exist, surprisingly, so should it be removed?).
The other hypothesis is that your site contains extended characters in the file names (accents, maybe the ampersand...) in which case the server, failing to interpret them, defaults to a motherly retreat by requesting an English character set by default (ASCII).
Good evening,
it's me again
I have 2 PCs, one with updated Windows 10, no problems, immediate opening of the server on my personal pages
the second PC under updated Windows 11, no editing of my personal pages
FileZilla is set up exactly the same way on both PCs
in passive mode, same result
in your opinion, could an update of Windows 11 be the cause of this problem?
I also tested with EDGE - CHROME and FIREFOX as browsers, same
I also tried with another software WINSCP, same
as mentioned above, it works with the FREE interface
It's normal that browsers like Firefox and Chromium no longer support FTP.
The connection to the site works fine, so it's not FileZilla (nor, I suppose, WINSCP) that is blocked by Windows.
I therefore don't see what Windows has to do with it directly (I don't know if the FTP protocol is launched directly from the FTP client by a dedicated executable or through the one from Windows); it is probably that the Windows firewall (or a third-party product) is blocking connections on the necessary ports, assuming the security mode is the same on Windows 10 and Windows 11.
OK, I will continue to look on the firewall side
thank you again for your help
happy end-of-year holidays to you and your family
sincerely
Hello,
Maybe port 21 is not open on the BOX for this PC...???
Good evening,
So it is indeed software, if not for security, at least for confidentiality, that was responsible for the situation; in this area, less is often more, or at least it's best to avoid the simultaneous use of products with the same effect (knowing that even if we lock the privacy options of browsers and even if we add an extra layer via third-party software, strict confidentiality on the Internet remains somewhat of a pipe dream...).
