DriveMaker is a FREE tool that maps a drive letter in Windows to an FTP, SFTP, or FTPS site. FTPS is “explicit” FTP over SSL and is considered as secure as online banking because user name, password, commands, and all data are always encrypted.

For example, run DriveMaker  to map X:\ to your FTP site. Once connected, use the X: drive like a normal drive to add and edit documents.

Quick Setup

Open DriveMaker, click “Add Site”, and enter the server address, user name and password. Chose a drive letter and click ‘Connect to Site’.

Enter FTP site addresses like this: ftp.myftpserver.com/myfolder or use the IP address: 123.123.120.49/folder

Enter SFTP site address as: sftpserver.com or use the IP address: 123.21.12.31/folder. Do not enter SFTP prefixes like sftp://

That’s all!
Click Connect and your new drive letter is visible to all applications running in the same user session, including anti-virus programs and the command prompt.
