How to configure FTP 7 or later version for HC panel?

1. Open IIS by clicking Start :: Run :: inetmgr ( Press Enter).
    
2. Right click on Sites ::  Add new FTP site, give new ftp site name as Default FTP Site or any other meaningful name and set Physical Path C:\inetpub\ftproot (if this path does not exist then create it and give Everyone full permission on it).
   
   
    
3. Set IP Address = All unassigned, port = 21 and press NEXT.
   
   
    
4. On the last page keep Anonymous unchecked and check Basic authentication. Kindly do not make any changes on this page. Click Finish.
   
   
    
5. Select newly created Default FTP Site and then click on Windows pane on right side. Here double click on FTP User Isolation and select option User name Directory (Disable global virtual directories).
   
   
    
6. Now right click on Default FTP Site. Chose option Add virtual Directory.
    
7. Give Alias = "LocalUser" and Physical path = "c:\inetpub\ftproot" (same as you mentioned in step#3). The LocalUser folder only works for server level (local) usernames.
