FTP Error while publishing

Well then, Filezilla is the cheapest alternative.

Damn straight!!

If you roll back IE11 to 10, then the problem is fixed.

Just to confirm that I have encountered this problem and doing a System Restore to uninstall IE11 and reinstall IE10 solves the problem. The "evil" Windows update was on 1st December 2013. After reinstalling IE10 make sure you unclick the "Install new versions automatically" box in the "About Internet Explorer" dialogue box.

You don't need to do a system restore to do a roll back. To uninstall IE11:

Click the Start button, type Programs and Features in the search box, and then select View installed updates.

Under Uninstall an update, scroll down to the Microsoft Windows section.

Right-click [Windows] Internet Explorer 11, click Uninstall, and then, when prompted, click Yes.

Click one of the following:

Restart now (to finish the process of uninstalling Internet Explorer 11 and restore the previous version of Internet Explorer) or Restart later.

Yes Miko. Many thanks for that. Probably best to keep the other bits of the windows update. I do think it is scandalous that Xara are not providing a patch to fix WD7 and older versions of WD. If you want IE11 it seems we will have to upgrade to WD9?

It would be good if they did, but from the other perspective, Xara built their software for use with the systems that were around when they made it, not for software that didn't exist. Should they be providing patches for every bit of software they've ever produced? No software developer would do that.

If you want IE11 it seems we will have to upgrade to WD9?
No. Just use Filezilla.

Hi Gary - Clarification please regarding the update/patch. Does this mean XDP7 will no longer upload properly without a 3rd party ftp thereby "suggesting" one upgrade to 9 in order to receive patch/update?

Thank you -

UPDATE: Well my ticket got a quick response so I will paste it below for clarification fro XARA.

Unfortunately yes, the latest update is for version 9 and you need to have a unlocked version to receive updates. You will have to either upgrade to the latest version of Web Designer/Designer Pro or continue using the method you have mentioned, export locally and publish using a third party FTP software.
