You can setup a samba server on your ubuntu computer, then upload your files from your pc to your ubuntu computer.
You can also use SFTP, which uses the SSH protocol. All you have to do is enable SSH on your computer.

Type
sudo apt install openssh-server
to enable ssh on your ubuntu computer, then typehostname -I
tp get your localip. On your other pc, install FileZilla, and use it to connect using SFTP, not FTP. Your username is the same as on your Ubuntu computer. If you're not sure on how to use FileZila, there are a ton of tutorials online. – Charles May 05 '20 at 13:41
