Yes Backup4all supports FTP resuming, within a certain number of retry times defined in the Tools->Options->FTP window. For instance, let’s say that in the When destination server is not ready section you have the Retry value 10 and wait 30. If the connection with the FTP server is lost during the upload, Backup4all will retry to upload the files 10 times every 30 seconds. If it succeeds in re-establishing the connection, the backup will continue from where it was stopped. If the connection cannot be restored after that number of retries (10 in our case) the backup will be aborted and starting a new backup will upload the files again. Note that there are some FTP hosting servers that do not support resuming.
