File transfer resume

Occasionally while transferring files, your connection may be interrupted, leaving some files only partially transferred. If the files are large, retransmitting them from the beginning again could prove very expensive.  For this reason, PROXY Pro Master provides a File transfer resume feature, which allows you to resume interrupted transfers exactly where you left off.  After a connection is interrupted (or if you manually cancel an in-process transfer), the next time you connect to the same Host and select the File Transfer tab in the Connection Window, PROXY Pro Master scans both the local machine and the remote Host machine for records of interrupted file transfers.  The list of any such resumable file transfers is then automatically presented in the Confirm Copy Resume window.
  
Check or uncheck each file you wish to resume, and then click the Resume button. At that point, file transfers for the selected files are resumed, and the transfers will run either to completion, or until the connection is again interrupted.  File transfers for any files that you uncheck will not be resumed, and their partial contents will be discarded. Also if you click Cancel instead of Resume, all partial contents will be discarded, and the record of those transfers will be deleted. Thus you have only one chance to resume a set of interrupted transfers.
 
NOTE: PROXY Pro Master does not resume the transfer of an entire directory or directory tree, only the individual files that were in process at the time the connection was lost.
 
NOTE: PROXY Pro Master only allows transfers in one direction or the other (to or from the Host) at a time, so the list of resumable file transfers will always consist of only files to be sent to the Host, or only files to be received from the Host. PROXY Pro Master does maintain a separate list of resumable file transfers for each Host.
