Progress Window

File box shows name of a file that WinSCP is currently working with.

Progress indicator shows approximately what part of the operation is already complete. The indicator is more accurate when calculation of total transfer size is enabled.

During transfer operation (upload or download) additional information is shown.

Target box shows target directory of the transfer (local for downloads, remote for uploads). For drag&drop downloads with disabled drag&drop shell extension, 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 calculation of total transfer size is disabled, Start time will be shown instead. Time elapsed shows time elapsed since operation started.

Bytes transferred shows total number of bytes transferred in 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 title bar shows the transfer process in percentage.
