Overwriting Files

Generally, FTP sites let you overwrite an existing file. More often than not, you don't receive any warning that a file is about to be overwritten. WS_FTP lets you choose what happens when a file is about to be overwritten:

First, open the Options screen and select the Transfers screen. You will see a 'File Overwrite Prompt' section, which gives you three options:

1. Don't prompt for overwrite (always overwrite)
2. Prompt for overwrite if file exists
3. Prompt for overwrite for same or new files only

Click the radio button of your choice and click 'OK'
