 +====== Progress Window ======
 +You will see the Progress window whenever WinSCP is performing some [[task_index|operation]]. Depending on the kind of the operation it will show various information about its progress.
 +&screenshotpict(progress)
 +
 +===== General Information =====
 +
 +//File// box shows name of a file that WinSCP is currently working with.
 +
 +The progress indicator shows approximately what part of the operation is already complete. For file transfers, the indicator is more accurate when [[ui_transfer_custom#common|calculation of total transfer size]] is enabled.
 +
 +===== Transfer Information =====
 +
 +During transfer operation ([[task_upload|upload]] or [[task_download|download]]) additional information is shown.
 +
 +//Target// box shows target directory of the transfer (local for downloads, remote for uploads). For [[task_download#dragdrop|drag&drop downloads]] in [[ui_pref_dragdrop#temporary|temporary folder mode]], WinSCP has no knowledge about the destination directory. In such case, the box will state "Temporary directory".
 +
 +//Time left// shows time estimated till operation end. If [[ui_transfer_custom#common|calculation of total transfer size]] is disabled, //Start time// will be shown instead. //Time elapsed// shows time elapsed since operation started.
 +
 +//Bytes transferred// shows the total number of bytes transferred in the current operation.
 +
 +//Speed// shows transfer speed in characters (bytes) per second.
 +
 +The bottom progress indicator shows what part of the file was already transferred.
 +
 +The top bar shows the transfer process in percentage.
 +
 +===== [[controlling]] Controlling the Operation =====
 +Use the //Cancel// button to cancel the operation. Note that with [[scp|SCP protocol]] the transfer of file cannot be interrupted without closing whole session.
 +
 +Use the //Skip this file// button to cancel a current file transfer, but proceed with other files in a batch.
 +
 +Use the //Minimize// button to minimize WinSCP window to taskbar. You may be [[ui_pref_environment#notifications|notified with a balloon]] once the operation finishes.
 +
 +For transfer and delete operations, use the //Proceed in ==Background==// button, to move the current operation to [[transfer_queue|background queue]]. This is not supported with [[scp|SCP protocol]]. When transfer resuming is not supported (with [[webdav|WebDAV]] and [[s3|S3]] protocols particularly), current file transfer will be restarted. It is not possible to move the operation to the queue, if it is a part of a larger operation (like when downloading remote file to an editor or when synchronizing).
 +
 +Use the //Action to perform once the operation finishes// drop-down menu to choose an [[once_done|action to do]] once the operation is completed. Note that the chosen action may cancel any [[transfer_queue|background transfers]] associated with the current session.
 +
 +Use the //Speed// drop-down to limit a transfer speed. Available only for transfer operations. The limit is in KB/s. To remove the speed limit, set it to "Unlimited". An initial transfer speed can be set as a part of [[ui_transfer_custom|transfer settings]]. You can also use a mouse wheel, when cursor hovers over the //Speed// box, to control the speed.
