Differences From Windows Explorer

The File Transfer window operates very much the same way as the familiar Windows Explorer. However, due to the different nature of handling files locally in your own computer (as per Windows Explorer) and handling them over a secured remote connection in the host computer (as per SSH Secure Shell for Workstations Windows client File Transfer), there are some differences in operation.

  • Deleting folders

    It is not possible to delete a remote folder that is not empty. Delete the files and subfolders residing in the folder first.

  • Multiple paste operations

    During copy and paste operations, the file names are not changed when the files are pasted. Therefore it is not possible to paste files several times into one location, creating 'copies of' the pasted files as in Windows Explorer.
