More to the point, you don't want to!.

Setting permission to the root of the c: drive poses numerous security
issues and also system stability. You should not do this unless you can be
110% sure that no-one will gain access to the FTP user account/server.

If you still want to proceed, then in the words of microsoft; "Contact your
system administrator" :-P
