SFTP Download window
Hello,
I wanted to ask two things here.
The first is, when I download a file with SFTP on a SSH session, a window at the bottom of the screen pop with a list of the current download.
My issue here is that I don't see a way to close this window, even when the download is already finished,
aside closing the SSH session altogether. I can only reduce it to the very bottom of the window.
Is there another way to close it ?
The window:
My second issue is that when I am downloading a file with SFTP, that same window doesn't automatically refresh itself at all.
The only way I have to refresh this window, and see the actual percentage of progress increase, is by clicking anywhere on this window with my mouse.
The window will then refresh one time and freeze again.
So if I want to see the download progress from 0 to 100%, I have to click every second on the window, which is not really convenient.
Is it possible to make this window automatically refresh itself for example, every second ?

Have a nice day,

Hello Hubert,
Thank you for the follow up.
Have nice day,
Clement.
Clement: quick question: how do you do it? I mean, opening SFTP to SSH session? :)
Hello andaluspc,
The same way that you described in this thread (I'm also waiting for this feature to be implemented) :
https://forum.devolutions.net/topics/37067/sftp-on-ssh-session-doesnt-allow-going-to-parent-folder
SSH Session -> Properties -> Terminal -> Advanced -> Use SFTP connection then tick every option except "log to file".
Have a nice day,
Clement.
Thank you Clement. from visibility perspective, and as a workaround, you can drag the window to the bottom (that doesn't close it, but it hides it at least for your convenience. of course, better if the team help us getting it fixed).
but, I'd like also to highlight to the team one more issue with this kind of transfer also: If I start a transfer of a folder, there is no way that I can cancel it without closing the session! Once, I started transfer and I couldn't stop it!

@andaluspc We will add this to our ticket and investigate. Can you confirm you're able to cancel the transfer of files, it's only for folders that it's impossible to cancel?
