Not sucessfully downloading and moving on to next file

i download files from my server by dragging them from the remote ftp browser and drag the folder/file into the Transfer Queue. as it downloads the file, and finishes completely downloading the file, it starts to idol for a while and then restarts downloading the file all over. it happens on multiple files.

I've used SFTP and have had this problem many times before however it somehow always finds itself fixig the problem after 2hours.

this time it is not fixed and causing the error.

im running 2 computers on in 32 bit vista home premium, the other is 64 bit vista home premium.

was this adequate information to help solve this issue?

Please post the log from the remote browser and from the transfer queue item that is stuck in the transfer queue.

Small files (~35mb from what I've observed) seem to work just fine. However the larger files (~300mb and above) keep timing out as they are done uploading and then restart.

EDIT: I've Reinstalled the program and will report on its behavior.

Please post the log from the remote browser and from the transfer queue item that is stuck in the transfer queue.

The problem was fixed by reinstaling the latest version. You may delete this post if you feel it is no longer vital to the forums help

I am having this issue also, using SFTP x64 v3.0.1016.13 with default configuration
Attempting to upload a compressed file, SFTP appears to complete the upload but then attempts to upload again and again going into a never ending cycle.
seems to only occur with compressed files, other file types transfer without any issue

I cannot recall this happening in v2.x

Here are the logs (remote browser and the transfer queue item) before aborting the transfer:

The problem was fixed by reinstaling the latest version. You may delete this post if you feel it is no longer vital to the forums help

re-installing the latest version did not resolve the transfer issue for me

Uninstalled SFTP(x64) v3.0.1016.13
Installed SFTP(x64) v3.0.1016.14
