What are the limitations of ftp_ssl_connect on Windows servers in PHP?

The limitations of ftp_ssl_connect on Windows servers in PHP include the lack of support for FTP over SSL/TLS connections on Windows. To work around this limitation, you can use the cURL extension in PHP to establish secure FTP connections on Windows servers. 

// Connect to FTP server using cURL with SSL/TLS
$ftp_server = 'ftp.example.com';
$ftp_user = 'username';
$ftp_pass = 'password';

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'ftps://' . $ftp_server);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $ftp_user . ':' . $ftp_pass);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);

// Perform FTP operations here

curl_close($ch);
