So it took some time, but managed to con nect a new project via FTP to my new site.
I was able to list and download the contents of htdocs.
However, when i attempt to overwrite a file it fails with the error. however i CAN add a new file
the error:
[19/12/2021 18:19] Download from QTTT

You can just ignore the index2.html file. Once you upload your index file, your users will not see the old one. The same thing goes for the ”upload load your files here” file. Since it is not a web file, the browser cannot display it, so you can ignore it.
also a different browser isnt a good web dev solution. cleared everything, hard reset everything and i still get the same. it was working just fine until a refresh. nothing else changed
