How to add a Windows user

To add an existing Windows user, select Add an existing Windows user. A list of Windows users that are enabled for the server machine will be shown. Select the user(s) to be added to CompleteFTP. Multiple users can be selected by holding down the Control key while selecting each user. To automatically create the user home directories in the server Home directory, ensure that "Automatically create home folders" is checked. Then click on the Add Selected User(s) button.

If a user's home directory already exists, a prompt to confirm that it to be reused is shown. By default, the new user's home directory will be created in the Home directory (see how to add a user for more details).

If a different home directory is desired, use 'Select non-default home directory' to choose one of the folders listed. You may need to create a virtual folder for them.

Finally, the 'Apply' button must be selected to create and save the user(s) to the configuration database.

Back in the Users window, which displays the current users, note that selecting on any user displays their details in the right hand panel. Any of these details can be edited at any time (although any changes will not apply to currently logged in users).
