Removing Items from the Queue

You can remove items from the Queue Window that are ready for transfer, that have completed transfer, or that have failed transfer. As old items build up in the queue, it can consume large amounts of memory. You can either remove them manually or configure CuteFTP to remove successfully transferred items automatically.

To remove selected items from the queue

  1. Click to select one or more items in the queue, then do one of the following:

    • On the main menu, click Tools > Queue > Remove Selected.

    • Right-click the selection and click Remove Selected.

    • Press DELETE.

    A confirmation message appears.

  2. Click Yes.

To remove completed transactions from the queue

  1. Do one of the following:

    • On the main menu, click Tools > Queue > Remove Finished.

    • Right-click in the Queue Window, then click Remove Finished.

    A confirmation message appears.

  2. Click Yes.
