The FTP branch of Settings includes the following options.
This allows you to set a file to contain FTP account data and settings. You can manually type the file path and name directly in the text box, or use the Browse button to select a file that already exists. If this option is not selected, FTP account information will be stored in the FTPData.ini file under %APPDATA%\IDMComp\UltraEdit or %APPDATA%\IDMComp\UEStudio (unless Share FTP accounts is selected below).
If this option is selected, the Share FTP accounts option below will be subdued and unavailable as the two are mutually exclusive.
If this option is selected, FTP accounts are shown in the "Explorer" tab of the File view (Workspace manager in UEStudio). The FTP root is listed as the top level directory and can be expanded to show files/folders.
If selected, an FTP log containing all commands sent to and data received from the FTP server is written to the output window. This can provide helpful diagnostic information and of course you can always copy the contents of the output window.
If selected, FTP account data and settings are written to a new file IdmFTPAccounts.txt created under %APPDATA%\IDMComp\Common\FTP Accounts. This will allow UltraEdit, UEStudio, UltraCompare, and UltraFTP to all simultaneously access FTP account information maintained in a common location rather than storing this information separately for each application.
If this option is selected, the Store FTP accounts and settings in user selected file option above will be subdued and unavailable as the two are mutually exclusive.
If this option is selected and an initial directory is set for an account under the "General" tab in FTP Account Manager, then when right-clicking a partial path in the text of a file opened via FTP, the editor will attempt to resolve / open the file relative to the initial directory rather than the active file's path.
