I'm using Core FTP Pro V2.1. I have set a lot of website FTP credentials on my instance. I'm going to reinstall my Windows, so I'm wondering: how I can back up all those settings and restore them on the newly installed Windows?

As the comment says, ftp doesn't allow this. You probably really want the 'download all, replace, upload back'.
The best I can think of is an editor that understands ftp. Behind the scenes, it's downloading the file, editing it locally, and then uploading, but maybe this 'invisible background ftp' is what you want. I don't know if any do multiple files though. There are individual programs that can do this, and I think any true KDE editor (e.g. kate) can do this through KIOSlaves.
Working with IIS 7.5 is a bit daunting when it comes to the new virtual hostnames for FTP servers. However, even though it seems you have configured yoru IIS 7.5 server correctly, IE, Chrome, and other browsers to not know how to handle those type of virtual host requests in the same manner that your IIS 7.5 can handle it.
The only work around currently available is to do the following, quoted:
Internet Explorer, Windows Explorer and Virtual FTP Sites issue
Both the Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer first try to connect to FTP server anonymously. If they fail, then they prompt for credentials.When FTP 7 is only configured with virtual host name based sites, these clients fail. Anonymous logon will be be rejected by server the way, that is valid as far as FTP specification (RFC 959) goes, nonetheless, it confuses the authentication sequence of those clients. Robert McMurray, noticed the problem long time ago and proposed a simple workaround in the following blog http://blogs.msdn.com/robert_mcmurray/archive/2008/12/17/ftp-clients-part-3-creating-a-global-listener-ftp-site.aspx.
To address the problem, you would need to create a GlobalListenerFtpSite, that is not configured with a host name. It has to deny anonymous access. As a matter of fact you should not allow any access to the site (leave the authorization section empty). This site will reject the anonymous logon the way that is friendly to IE and Windows Explore. Everything will then work as expected. Robert's blog entry will provide more information on the topic.

For those who have the same problem, I found this solution:
For backing up go to "Site Manager" (Site Menu -> Site Manager), right-click on area and in the context-menu chose "Export".
This way you can save your "Site setting credentials" on your Hard disk.
For Restoring do the same but in the context-menu chose "Import".
