Generate/SecureFXsysicon.jpg  Resume


Resumes an interrupted file download for the current session [A session is a set of options that are assigned to a connection to a remote machine in SecureFX. These settings and options are saved under a session name and allow the user to have different preferences for different hosts.] . SecureFX keeps track of all files and folders for an interrupted transfer and will transfer the remaining portion of any interrupted file as well as all remaining files and folders.

An interrupted transfer can be resumed at any time in a session by selecting Resume from the File menu. Additionally, if a transfer has been interrupted for any session in the session database, then the next time that session is started a dialog will prompt with the following choices:

Generate/BULLET.gif    Resume the interrupted download immediately

Generate/BULLET.gif    Delay resuming the download until later

Generate/BULLET.gif    Forget about the interrupted download

To turn off this prompting, uncheck the Prompt to resume interrupted transfers option in the Global Options/File Transfer dialog.

Interrupted file transfers may also be resumed manually or on-demand in addition to the above mechanism. This is accomplished by simply transferring the file in the usual way (i.e., drag-and-drop, cut-and-paste, download, etc.). If the file already exists in the destination folder, SecureFX will compare the size of the source file against the size of the destination file. If the size of the destination file is less than the size of the source, SecureFX will ask you if you want to overwrite the destination file, resume the transfer, or skip the file transfer.
