Note from Michael Glaser, Webmaster of tests‑and‑tips.info:
“Since the release of FileZilla Portable, this is the only version I've used. I have also tested other FTP programs and often got spooked.
Since then I don't do any more experiments and only recommend FileZilla.”

 

Addendum 29.05.2020:
Since the launch of my new Apple MacBook Air on 18.05.2020 I missed my FileZilla client very much – just installed it and can finally fully maintain my websites again. Lucky Smiley
