Downloading Files with Tectia Secure File Transfer GUI

There are different ways to download a file, or several files at the same time. Selecting multiple files with the Shift or Control key works the same way as in Windows Explorer.

Drag and drop

Dragging and dropping is probably the easiest way to download files. Simply select the file(s) you want to download, hold down the mouse button and move the file to a location where you want it - for example on the Windows desktop - and release the button.

Download button

Click the Download button on the toolbar to download the selected file(s).

Shortcut menu

When you right-click a file in the Remote View, a shortcut menu appears. Select Download to perform the transfer immediately, or select Download Dialog to define another destination folder for the files.

If you selected the Download Dialog option, a Download - Select Folder dialog appears. This is a standard Windows file selection dialog, where you can select the location where you want the selected file(s) to be downloaded. After you have selected the appropriate folder (or some other location), the current downloading status will be shown in the Transfer View.
