If you are still using an older version of the WS FTP Pro client and all of a sudden your remote system pane has disappeared, there is a very quick way to solve this issue.
Click on “Tools”, then “Options”. On the “General” tab, click on the button that says “Reset Window Locations”. By resetting the window locations, the remote system directory list will reappear.

Thanks for the note. You hinted at it, but this really only affects versions of WS_FTP Professional that are at least five years out of date. Of course, there’s another way to address this – get the latest version of WS_FTP Professional – v12.2.
(Probably a good idea anyway if you’re on Vista or Windows 7.)
