How to view an FTP server in Avast Secure Browser?

How to view a local or any FTP server in Avast Secure Browser?
When I try to do it, ASB just redirects me to a different browser (IE). I think I read somewhere that chromium based browsers don't offer the possibility to view or open FTPs. There is supposably a "flag" that you download as an extension for Chrome that lets you view an FTP server through Chrome.
What about Avast Secure Browser? How do I make it display the content of my local FTP server (ftp://192.168.1.xxx)?

Hello,

Avast Secure Browser is based on Chromium and some time ago Google decided to remove FTP support from Chrome (https://chromestatus.com/feature/6246151319715840) for security reasons, the same applies to the Secure Browser.

Regards,
