That's correct. Except that it always finishes the outstanding reconnect attempt. It breaks only after that fails. If WinSCP does not behave like that, please attach a complete session log file (Session.SessionLogPath).

I am having problem with the session.reconnectTimeout.

I am using Powershell and WinSCP to upload file to a server. If I kill the VPN while WinSCP is uploading file. The thread hang. I have to kill powershell.

Looking more closely using wireshark, I can see WinSCP trying to reconnect.

Any suggestion
