Transferring Files in Order

You can see the order in which queued items transfer at the left end of the Queue pane. The numbers in the column indicate the order of transfer. By default, files transfer in the same order that they are added to the queue.

To transfer items in the order added

  1. Sort the Local or Remote pane by clicking on the corresponding column header (Name, Time, Size, etc.)

  2. In the Local or Remote pane, click the item(s) to transfer, then drag the selected items into the queue. Note that the items are ordered in the same way they were sorted prior to adding them to the queue.

  3. Right-click in the Queue pane, then click Transfer All. CuteFTP transfers the files in the order reflected by the numbers in the left column of the queue.

To set a specific transfer order

  1. Move transfer items to the Queue pane as described above.

  2. Click the pound sign (#) column header to sort the items by their transfer order.

  3. Click an item in the queue.

  4. On the main menu, click Tools > Queue > Change Order.

You can also change an item's place in the transfer order by clicking and dragging the item up or down in the queue. A blue line indicates where the item's new position in the queue will be after you release the mouse.
