Phil Pendlebury has written a really handy little tool for quickly uploading files from Windows Explorer, and he’s built it using Macro Scheduler.

With his FTP Uploader tool installed you can right click on any file and select Send To->FTP Uploader to quickly upload it to any FTP site.

It will remember the FTP server settings for you and you can choose which FTP settings to use. If the uploaded file has a public web URL the tool will also create the URL for you and put it on the clipboard. Handy for sending people links to file, or uploading images and other files for use in forums.

I’m often uploading files to our FTP server to send to people, instead of relying on Email attachments. This tool will make short shrift of that. Thanks Phil!
