Description

If I connect to the FTP server using Windows 11's file explorer via Add Network Location, I can right click a folder and it will show the option to delete it in the right-click menu. If I click that nothing happens and the file is still present on the device. Is there a way to make this work(do I need a third party client)? Or is there a way to move files off the device with the FTP server?
