Re: Ftp resume issue.
Hi,
Note that the option "If possible resume a broken file transfer when a profile is re-started (may slow profile)" under:
Modify > Expert > Copy/Delete > Advanced settings page
is only meant for situations where a profile run stops when the network connection is disconnected.
For example: if the network connection is lost when SyncBack is transferring a file from Source to FTP server, then when the profile is next run SyncBack will try and resume the interrupted file if it can find the partial copy on the FTP side (rather than copying the entire file again).
But if a profile run is aborted (due to other reasons or if the user aborts the profile run) then no attempt will be made to resume a file transfer. Also, this option will work only if the FTP server supports the resume feature.
Please read the help file for more details about this option. With Copy/Delete > Advanced settings page opened, press F1 to open the contextual help.
Thank you.

Re: Ftp resume issue.
Thank you for respond but why if it can support because of network issue, but also with other aborted issue like computer reset, program lock down or etc.
I am asking because I need to transfer large file which could take days and do not want to leave computer on every time.
