This might be an unimportant tutorial but I have come across a lot of forums asking about this (during my own search at how to fix this problem) and I finally figured it out. SO to ease the suffering of others who may find themselves unable to upload to the FileZilla Server.

Go to where you saved your XAMPP server install (Typically C:\XAMPP\)
Go into the FileZillaFTP Folder and you will see these four files:

1) FileZilla Server.xml
2) FileZilla Server_Example.xml
3) FileZilla Server Interface.xml
4) FileZilla Server Interface_Example.xml

Select the first file and open it in Visual Studio or any other XML editor that you might happen to have and scroll through the code until you come to your user settings like this:

<User Name="YOUR NAME HERE">
<Option Name="Pass"/>
<Option Name="Group"/>
<Option Name="Bypass server userlimit">0</Option>
<Option Name="User Limit">0</Option>
<Option Name="IP Limit">0</Option>
<Option Name="Enabled">0</Option>
<Option Name="Comments"/>
<Option Name="ForceSsl">0</Option>
<IpFilter>
<Disallowed/>
<Allowed/>
</IpFilter>
<Permissions>
<Permission Dir="YOUR PATH HERE">
<Option Name="FileRead">1</Option>
<Option Name="FileWrite">0</Option>
<Option Name="FileDelete">0</Option>
<Option Name="FileAppend">0</Option>
<Option Name="DirCreate">0</Option>
<Option Name="DirDelete">0</Option>
<Option Name="DirList">1</Option>
<Option Name="DirSubdirs">0</Option>
<Option Name="IsHome">1</Option>
<Option Name="AutoCreate">0</Option>
</Permission>
</Permissions>
<SpeedLimits DlType="0" DlLimit="10" ServerDlLimitBypass="0" UlType="0" UlLimit="10" ServerUlLimitBypass="0">
<Download/>
<Upload/>
</SpeedLimits>
</User>

Paying special attention to this area here:

<Option Name="FileRead">1</Option>
<Option Name="FileWrite">0</Option>
<Option Name="FileDelete">0</Option>
<Option Name="FileAppend">0</Option>
<Option Name="DirCreate">0</Option>
<Option Name="DirDelete">0</Option>
<Option Name="DirList">1</Option>
<Option Name="DirSubdirs">0</Option>
<Option Name="IsHome">1</Option>
<Option Name="AutoCreate">0</Option>

These options have one of two settings as you can imagine 1 for true, 0 for false. Set the option to 1 if you want that user to be able to have access to those properties and 0 if you want to restrict them from it.

Hope this helps someone.
