How to Connect to an FTP Through a DOS CommandIn Feburary 2016 18,

In Feburary 2016 18,
Click the 'Start' button. Type 'cmd' in the 'Search programs and files' box at the bottom of the Start menu and press 'Enter.' The command prompt appears.
Type 'ftp (name of site)' and then press 'Enter.' For example, a completed command might be 'ftp ftp.microsoft.com.'
Type 'anonymous' and press 'Enter' when prompted for a username if the site allows public access. Press 'Enter' again when prompted for a password. For private FTP sites, enter your username, press 'Enter,' then enter your password and press 'Enter' again. Windows displays nothing on the screen while you enter your password, for security. You should now see the prompt 'User logged in.'
Type 'dir' and press 'Enter' to see a list of folders on the FTP site.
Type 'cd (name of folder)' to browse to that folder. For example, a completed command might be 'cd Products.' The window should display the prompt 'CWD command successful.'
Type 'get (name of file)' when you find the file that you want to download. The window displays the prompt 'Transfer starting' and displays 'Transfer complete' when the download is finished.
Type 'bye' and press 'Enter' when you are ready to disconnect from the FTP site.
