You may think that you are all set. You will find though that you can connect to the server, but not browse the directory or modify files (although you can create files for some reason, but they end up as zero bytes).

I found this post which instructs you to enter the following commands via and command prompt. Note that you must select Run as Administrator or you will get a permissions error:
netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFtp enable
