 +===== Transfer Information =====

 +
 +//Resume// box states whether it would be possible to [[resume|resume]] transfer of current file in case it is interrupted.

 +//Bytes transfered// shows total number of bytes transfered in current operation.
 +
 +//CPS// shows transfer speed in characters (bytes) per second.

 +===== Controlling the Operation =====
 +Check //Disconnect when operation finishes// to make WinSCP disconnect current session when the operation finishes. Note that this will also cancel any background transfers associated with current session. You can configure whether you want to close whole application along using confirmation option //[[ui_pref_environment#confirmations|Exiting application on operation completion]]// in preferences.
 +
 +Use //Minimize// button to minimize WinSCP window to taskbar. You may be [[ui_pref_environment#notifications|notified with ballon]] once the operation finishes.
 +
 +Use //Cancel// button to cancel the operation. Note that with [[protocols#scp_secure_copy_protocol|SCP protocol]] the transfer of file cannot be interrupted without closing whole session.
 +
 +Use //Speed// slider for limited control of transfer speed. Available only for transfer operation.
