Setting preferences in WS-FTP

WS-FTP is defaulted to a setting that I do not recommend.  This setting will transfer files from one window to another when the file is double-clicked.  I would recommend changing this setting, so that only manually transferred files are moved, because sometimes a file may be double-clicked by accident. To change this setting:

• In the main FTP window, click on the "Options" button to get the following window:

• Click on the "Advanced" tab and click on "Nothing" in the "Double Click Action" section of the window.
• Click OK to save your changes.

Please continue to the next section on Setting Permissions For Your Netlink ID Folder.
