Wrathek Posted October 26, 2009 Content Count: 1839 Joined: 09/28/08 Status: Offline Share Posted October 26, 2009 he meant "access to" FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol, and he meant he could let him upload the files to the server and d/l them later. (http is for websites, ftp is used for files) although this is disingenuous because FTP is used to manage a remote HTTP server (by uploading http files rofl) Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/23600-help/page/2/#findComment-279005

I'd appreciate if anyone had any idea of where I could put them to keep them saved and get them back after formatting? Use a flash drive. Put all you files you want to keep in the flash drive then reformat the computer. Then put all your files back Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/23600-help/page/2/#findComment-279045

Then put all your files back i mean i know he said documents specifically, but if i had a flash drive big enough for the stuff i backup pre-format.. damn. (they DO sell them that large, but for prices so outrageous i'd rather waste my cash on a velociraptor drive tbh) Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/23600-help/page/2/#findComment-279098
