2. Unzip the contents somewhere on your dekstop (the contents will extract to a folder named mftp.
3. Using your old FTP client (e.g. Filezilla, Cute FTP) login to your web hosting account and locate your website's home folder. This is normally something like public_html, but as a general rule, it's where the front page of your website is located.
4. Locate the mftp folder on your desktop and upload the entire folder to your web hosting account.
5. Once the files have uploaded you can open your browser and access the install at www.yourdomain.com/mftp, which will look similar to the image below.
