Resuming Transfers
CuteFTP automatically attempts to resume interrupted transfers caused by lossy connection, server-kicked users, a slow server, and so on. CuteFTP does not auto-resume interrupted transfers when the remote server is unreachable (i.e., there is no connection available, the server is down, or for any other reason). In those situations, you must manually resume the transfer.
In you have not shut down and restarted CuteFTP since the interruption took place, CuteFTP assumes that the transfer is within its original context and attempts to resume it from the point it left off. If the transfer is no longer in the original context, CuteFTP prompts you to overwrite the destination file; that is, to start over. You can set up overwrite rules to tailor such situations to your specific needs.
