WinSCP is able to [[resume#automatic|transfer files to temporary filename]] first, renaming it to the target name only once the transfer successfully finishes. This allows for [[resume#automatic|automatic transfer resume]]; as well as preserving the existing target file for duration of the transfer (what is particularly useful when updating frequently accessed files on web sites).

However with other protocols you can resume transfers also [[resume#manual|manually]]. Though the option still has some effect with the FTP protocol, it controls whether a file transfer is automatically resumed, after a connection is restored, when it breaks in a middle of a file transfer, or if the transfer restarts from the beginning.
