Re: Background Transfer: FTP server disconnects for inactivity; WinSCP ends entire session.
If the foreground session is lost for whatever reason, you get a popup with an option to Reconnect. The background transfers should keep running meanwhile. If you choose to reconnect, the transfers still keep running. Only if you choose to close the connection, the background transfer are terminated too. The same way as if you close the connection any other way. Do you have a different experience?
