Queuing Files and Folders for Transfer

CuteFTP allows you to drag items to the queue to download them later. From within the Queue Window, you can also stop, resume, or restart a transfer. For a description of the icons that appear in the Queue Window, see Transfer Queue Icons.

To display or hide the queue

1. On the main menu, click View>Show Panes.

2. Click Queue & Log Pane or click ALT+1 to display or hide it.

To add items to the queue

2. Locate the files or folders you want to upload or download in your local or remote pane.

3. Drag the selected items to the transfer queue window.

4. Repeat as necessary. You can also connect to other Sites and add files and folders to the queue.

5. Once you have finished adding items to the transfer queue, you can change queue item attributes if desired, such as destination path, transfer type, scheduling, and so on by clicking the item, then pressing ALT+ENTER.

6. To change the transfer priority of an item, click it, then drag it up or down in the queue. A blue line appears to indicate where the item will be placed.
