Problem solved.

I just copied the FTP register keys from my laptop and installed it on my main PC. It had some additional keys in the main branch that I didn't have on this computer.

Register key included in case someone else needs it.

Thank you so much, ftp_key.reg worked truly.

Thank you!!!

This worked beautifully!! Thanks to all who figured this out.

This fixed one issue I had on a user's machine. She was now able to access the FTP site using the Windows Explorer and transfer files. Thank you

Thank you my friend.

Paste the following into a blank text document and save as ftp_key.reg or download file below. Then run the file.

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ftp]
@="URL:File Transfer Protocol"
"AppUserModelID"="Microsoft.InternetExplorer.Default"
"EditFlags"=dword:00000002
"FriendlyTypeName"="@C:\\Windows\\System32\\ieframe.dll,-905"
"ShellFolder"="{63da6ec0-2e98-11cf-8d82-444553540000}"
"Source Filter"="{E436EBB6-524F-11CE-9F53-0020AF0BA770}"
"URL Protocol"=""

Thank you very much, it works on My Windows 7 Ultimate! I think firefox break everything! I really hate it to be honest.. But Thanks for taking it back :)) Now it works like charm!
