How do I use browser based FTP?

Browser based FTP is commonly used when you are unable to install a FTP program. Below is the syntax, which you will need to place into your address bar to make it, work (there is a couple below):

Option 1: ftp://username:password@serverIP/
Option 2: ftp://username:password@yourdomain.com/

* Please note, you will need to replace: Username with your real cPanel username, your password, with your real password, and yourdomain.com with your actual domain name.

Please note that the browser will not accept multiple "@" symbols, thus if your FTP account is an add-on domain your domain you will need to use an FTP program such as FileZilla.
