The Stop command halts the current transfer or action.

This command is available as:

- The Stop command in the View menu

The Stop command halts the transfer or action currently in progress. Stopping actions may leave them half-completed, for example, if you were uploading a file, an incomplete file may be left on the server; if you were downloading a set of files or folders, some but not all of the files may be on your local drive; or if you stopped a listing of files, the file list may show only a partial list of files.

You can also stop the current action by typing Command-. (Command-period).

If you stopped the transfer of a file, you may be able to resume it later — see the resuming an interrupted download or resuming uploads help topics.
