For all those crazy downloaders/uploaders who don't have a no- break or UPS system, it is really bad when there is a power loss/computer shutdown during transfers.

It would be really great that when windows restarted from a power loss, that flashfxp broken queues were loaded and started transfering automatically without having to run flashfxp manually.
That would require a flashfxp queue agent service on windows I think.

Sometimes you leave your computer and think that when you come back the queue will be finished, but meanwhile there was a power loss and you wasn't around to do all that "start flash, load broken queue, transfer queue, minimize to tray" process.

I don't like getright, it is ugly, but it does it :(

Alternatively, it would be a handy feature for when you reboot... FlashFXP automatically starts transferring your queues on log-in. :)

Yeah ! We all close our flashfxps windows, reboot and have to reopen like 4-6 queues again. I also miss a global queue manager, that handles all queues in 1 single window so you don't need all those clients open or minimized to tray, almost reaching the windows start menu button.:) I think smartftp has something like that, but it is still a crap.

and what if FlashFXP crashed your computer? it rebooted automaticaly, loaded FlashFXP and crashed again...and it goes into endless loop.

i think it's a bad idea

FlashFXP never crashed my computer. I'm talking mainly about power loss and not flashfxp crash. And of course this is just a feature I would like to see on your to-do list. All amazing features like this should be default but for the unhappy and those who think windows loads enough ****, you just make an option to enable/disable flashfxp queue manager agent.
