Why ? Because lot of people is asking for that... All others FTP software can do that. :-(
Thanks.

When this feature will be available, I'll work every days with WinSCP and make a good donation.
We do not have any plans for that yet. Sorry.

Hi,
Sorry for the late, but it seems to be better by using background transfer and separate file transfer.
The last thing that I can't use WinSCP instead of AceFTP for my work is the background operations which are not possible (like delete many files).
I saw that a lot of people are asking for that since some years, but it's always not possible. :(

Re: WinSCP very slow compared to FileZilla and FTPExpert-AceFTP
Please attach a full log files showing the upload of many small files both using WinSCP and Filezilla (using the latest versions).
To generate log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.

I just tried now with one 33.6MB file, results :
FTPExpert : 6min45
WinSCP : 7min
So it's not so bad with big files, but with many little files there is a big difference of performances.

WinSCP very slow compared to FileZilla and FTPExpert-AceFTP
Hi,
I'm tired of using FTPExpert (AceFTP) because this software isn't updated since a long time and it is force closing very often.
I don't want to use FileZilla because the stocked passwords are not encrypted.
I used WinSCP since a long time to edit files in SSH, so yesterday I tried to use it for FTP transfer instead of the others softwares.
I tried to upload a Wordpress (1084 files, 114 folders, 14.1MB) using the 3 softwares, on the same server, look at the transfer time :
- FTPExpert : 6min
- FileZilla : 5min50
- WinSCP : 8min
So it takes 2 minutes more to upload it using WinSCP.
I need to upload a lot of files every days, so I'll lose time using WinSCP, but I really want to change my FTP software.
Do you know why there is the difference of time ? The settings are the same (FTP, 2 simultaneous transfers, no bandwith limit).
Another thing : it could be very nice if deleting files was in background because we can't do something else during the deleting.
Thanks in advance and happy new year.
Best regards,
Barth.
