I left my computer uploading overnight and the upload was interrupted and the 'resume' button popped up. I'm assuming cause there was an issue with one of the files. When I click 'resume', uploading continues just fine as expected, but uploading had stopped till I hit 'resume'. Is there a way to keep uploading all the other files without it stopping and having to click 'resume'? For time's sake, it would be great if most of the files are being uploaded when I leave it uploading overnight, then I can deal with just the files that had issues.

    This appears to be the expected behavior and there is currently to way to changed this at present.

    Hi Folks,

    I'm following up on this because I have the same problem. Is there a fix for this yet? How can I conduct a backup of a thousand files that might take an hour or two to upload if I have to watch the upload window the whole time and press "resume" each time it pops up? Normal file systems (e.g. windows) do not halt copying of other files when one file fails. Thanks
