Windows 10: How to disable FTP Cache?

I have the CX Explorer app installed on my Android smartphone. I run an FTP server in it and access folders on my smartphone via Windows Explorer over a local network. The problem is that I have to refresh EVERY folder I open in Explorer every time, otherwise it displays cached files and folders that may no longer be on the smartphone. Or it does NOT display the files and folders that I created on the smartphone. How can I completely disable this cache? Manipulating with IE settings did not help. Thanks! Windows 10, Android 13

We suggest that you follow the methods below to troubleshoot FTP issues with Internet Explorer.

Method 1:

• Open Internet Explorer.
• Click Tools.
• Select Internet Options.
• Open Advanced tab.
• Look at Enable FTP folder view checkbox. Check it if it isn't checked.
• Repeat the above steps with Use Passive FTP.

Method 2:

Temporarily disable the firewall/ anti-virus installed on your PC.

NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily
disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

FTP Access IIS

Hi

I set up an FTP site using IIS to share files within my LAN. I have created a new user on the same PC as FTP site but when i try to access FTP folder from any device on the LAN using username and password of
my new user it refuses to let me in showing the following: Could not log in to the FTP server with the username and password specified.

Steps that I have gone through when setting up FTP:

• Created ftp folder and set up FTP server
• specified path to the folder
• did not use SSL
• specified IP
• Created new windows user and added this user to FTP authorisation Rules
• Excluded FTP from firewall
• Allowed new user access to the folder itself

Tried to access using both file directory and internet explorer

Did not enable port triggering in the router as was only planning to use FTP locally

I would highly appreciate your help
