Remove Incomplete User Uploads

As an administrator, you can remove files that were not completely uploaded. This can free up storage space.

If a user tries to upload a file and for some reason the action is only partially completed, the file is saved in a folder for partial uploads.

• Partial uploads are saved in case a network connection is lost and the user wants to continue the upload when connectivity is restored.

• Incomplete user uploads are never shown in the Manage Files listing. 

• Over a period of time, these partial uploads can occupy lots of space. 

• Admins can easily remove these partial uploads with the click of one button.

If a file upload is in progress:

• It will not be removed, even if it only partially uploads, unless you use the In-transit option when removing partial uploads

• You can use the In-transit option to cancel a partial upload in progress
