That's still gambling with your data.

I just made an account in order to tell you that after reading this thread and some others on this forum as well as others, I'm also going to stop using FileZilla (on both Linux and Windows) and simply use one of the many editor extensions that offer this feature, which in my view is a must-have feature. I respect your programming skills and ethos, but it's 2023 now and who doesn't work user-oriented will someday have no users left. Maybe think about your attitude. It would be sad if FileZilla disappeared. Bye.

I've been using FileZilla for years and just did a quick Google to see if this was possible as it is driving me insane constantly making small adjustments to files and having to go back and click upload every single time. Regardless, it is not looking possible. But I couldn't read this thread and not comment on how disrespectful the site admin has been speaking with users. I will be spending my day looking for alternatives.

Using filezilla since maybe 15 years (as long as I remember).
Would like also to get this option please.
I think we all all responsive for our data lost, if it happens time to time.
I don't remember even once that I click "no" on the prompt asking me if I really want to upload or not. So clicking "yes" automatically would save me probably 1000 clicks / week times 15 years = 1 million clicks and switching from a windows to another one.
I think a prompt telling us we may lose data if we activate the automatic "yes click" option would be great to avoid problems with people who don't wish to upload automatically.
Could the admin double think about this option?
Or could someone share a similar program to filezilla, with the option? Would like something which is very very similar to FZ but with this option.
Thanks :)

I just made an account in order to tell you that after reading this thread and some others on this forum as well as others,

I'm going to find the solution to continue using FileZilla.

Here is the solution : tested by me and working.

How to Use :

Download and install autoit
Lauch The Script
Script will waiting for the window “File has changed” and will click yes each time .

code :

Code: Select all

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Terminate") ;~ dimm exit by esc
Func _Terminate()
Exit
EndFunc ;==>_Terminate

;~ func to mange the windows
Func _WinWaitActivate($title,$text,$timeout=0)
WinWait($title,$text,$timeout)
If Not WinActive($title,$text) Then WinActivate($title,$text)
WinWaitActive($title,$text,$timeout)
EndFunc

MsgBox("","Info","When file edition i will always click yes for upload",5)
Run('C:\Program Files\FileZilla FTP Client\filezilla.exe')

$mywindow = "File has changed"
While 1 ; start loop here
ToolTip("Waiting...")
;~ _WinWaitActivate("File has changed","")
_WinWaitActivate($mywindow,"")
;~ [CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]
ControlClick($mywindow,"", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]") ;~ dimm or simply send yes key Send("{y}")
ToolTip("Loop")
Sleep(5000)
Wend ; stop loop here

You are using Windows, yet still do not understand anything about file locking. Please study the fundamentals about how Windows work.
