How to download software via FTP in Windows?

Question

Amazon Web Services

Why can't I connect to an ftp server through a Windows R2 2012 instance?
I go to the instance via RDP.
I open the command line there, I enter ftp ftp.microsoft.com (I also tried other addresses). Writes Connection timed out

Answer 1

in fact, I already answered you that at this address the microsoft ftp server does not hold, what are you trying to connect to, there is no ftp there
, better connect to f.9qw.ru

Answer 2

And what, FTP is still alive?
He also transmits passwords in plain text.
Who needs such a way of authorization now.
