FileMasta is intended to provide a very powerful ftp server indexing and search service allowing you to find a file among millions of files located on public servers around the internet.
The search engine is powered by a public database that holds information about all the files web servers have. The data is collected by an intelligent web crawler that runs every 2 to 4 days. It keeps the database clean and up-to-date with the previous contents and new entries for each server address.
All servers this app uses for indexing are submitted by users only, open a PR and add yours. A list of the servers we index are stored in our ftp servers list. Also please check our Terms of Use statement for more information about what you have to take into consideration to use this application.
We host no content, we provide only access to already available files in a same way Google and other search engines do.

I have found the files I need, but I cannot download them, the link does not work. Why?
None of the file links you can find on this app is located on current server, so this can happen very frequently.
There could be several reasons for that:
- These files were recently removed from the server they were located, by the owner of the server or by someone else in the case of public servers.
- The server where the files are is turned off or is not connected to the Internet at the moment.
- The owner of the server has put a restriction on downloading these files.
How can I download files from FileMasta? Do I need any special program?
You don't need a special program but it is very recommended. For example, if you just open the link in your web browser you can't see what is happening exactly between you and the web server (see previous question). So I would recommend to use a good web client that supports queuing or your favorite download manager, when you located the file you want to download just copy the link and paste it in your web client or whatever, that's it.
