File Manager: Uploading files

You can add files from your computer to the current folder by uploading them.

Uploading with the Upload button

1. Click Upload on the toolbar, or press Ctrl+U.
2. Choose one or more files from your computer.
3. The files are copied into the current folder.

The Upload command is also available on the Actions menu (☰).

Uploading by dragging

You can also drag files from your computer onto the file list. A Drop files here to upload area appears; release the mouse to start the upload.

Watching progress

Progress is shown in the upload tray. Each file shows its status — pending, uploading, done or error — together with an overall percentage. You can collapse or expand the tray, and Cancel stops any remaining uploads.

Duplicate files

If a file of the same name already exists, you'll be asked to Skip or Overwrite it. An Apply to all option lets you make the same choice for the remaining duplicates.

Permissions

You need write permission in the current folder to upload. Without it, Upload is greyed out.
