Hello
in my Cpanel, I added new FTP with the name "genius" and it's details as following
FTP Username: genius@mydomain.com
FTP server: ftp.mydomain.com
FTP & explicit FTPS port: 21
now if I want to add it in windows as network location it wont work as the username contains "@" in the username
it give me error

Windows cannot access this folder. Make sure you typed the file name correctly and that you have permission to access the folder.

The URL is invalid

Hello, Do you have any idea about custom ftp port? For example if my ftp port is not 21, how do I connect it with microsoft map drive. I am trying ftp://domain.com:221 but it does not work.0
