    Hello everyone,

    I am having trouble transferring files with FileZilla. I want to transfer all my files from my site to my computer, so that I can work on it locally. My host is bluehost and I was advised to transfer with FileZilla. However,when I try to transfer my themes, I only get this (see below)

    Error: Failed to open “C:\Boot\wp-admin\user\profile.php” for writing
    Error: File transfer failed
    Status: Starting download of /wp-admin/user/profile.php
    Error: Failed to open “C:\Boot\wp-admin\user\profile.php” for writing
    Error: File transfer failed
    Status: Disconnected from server
    Status: Disconnected from server

    Ive been messing with it the past couple of days,but cannot figure out. My site is http://www.jimmyesl.com

    thanks

    You just need to transfer /wp-content/themes file to work on them. All other WordPress files can be restored from a fresh download of WordPress from

    Why are you downloading files to your C: drive. Try downloading in D: drive under Documents or Downloads.
