I've used this for 2 years and in general like it. I've set it up for a photographer relative to tag his vast family and sport photo collections.

Note it is NOT intuitive. And for Portable users, there is a catch-22. Either all your files end up in one directory, or if you use Alias mode, the files remain where they are, but if you move them (say to a different directory structure or to a different drive), the hard-coded aliases are broken. They are in a UUIC-named text file and I have not been able to relate which alias to which file/document without opening the alias.

An excellent program for quickly and simply uploading data with a built-in zip feature. When working on mission critical work, you simply drag-and-drop to quickly save a zipped copy. The only option for Windows similar to the OS X "Transmit" dashboard apps.

Unfortunately lacks any security or advanced FTP functions.

Save2FTP v2.1.104 Updated

lwc on 16 Apr 2024
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 26 Aug 2008
  • Suggested by Andrew Lee

Save2FTP is designed for an automatic online backup of your important data to remote FTP servers. It will help you organize your backups and schedule automatic backups. It supports inclusion and exclusion of files by wildcard mask as well as by exact file name, and keeps detailed logs of all backup operations. It includes a scheduler for unattended auto-backup and scheduling of any specific time or date, day of the week or month. It also allows you to create incremental backups so you only need to backup files that have changed.

Note: The freeware version of Save2FTP no longer appears to be available. This entry therefore links to the direct download of the most recent version. Thanks to MarcosJC for sending over v2.1. If there's anything newer, please post on the forum thread.

If you like to localize to your language, you will find a
translation package at: http://avpsoft.com/products/ftp-backup-freeware-save2ftp/
There is also a language pack for german and dutch.
I tried 'german' with V2.5 and it worked fine.

Andrew Lee on 2009-06-26 06:19

@Humbleside: Thanks for the official link to the freeware version. I downloaded and tried it. Although it says the version is "1.9", when you run the installer it says "2.1". And the version info in the EXE says "2.1.2.2042". So I will remove the direct download and point the links to the official ones.

Andrew Lee on 2009-06-26 06:21

@Checker: Thanks for the link. However, as I am unable to verify the authenticity of the software (eg. is it a cracked version), I will continue to point to the official links supplied by Humbleside.

This latest version doesn't seem to work in XP. Last version working is 6.1.2.13797

dmiranda on 2024-03-15 16:21

The newest version at this time (6.3.2) works again in windows XP.

dmiranda on 2024-04-20 00:12

WinSCP v6.3.3 continues to work with XP. I think it's fair to think support has been effectively restored.

@billon
Thanks for updating "How to extract".

rb161 on 2020-07-27 22:17

Having used it for many years, Filezilla has lost its way now in my opinion. The irritating pop up balloon on every successful upload is just one of the annoyances. The latest update seemed to corrupt something on my Windows and I was reduced to about one fifteenth of the normal upload speed. Going back to an ancient version hasn't fixed the issue and the portable versions are the same. However WinSCP works fine so it's that for me from now on.
