# Do uploads continue if I close the Delta Drive window?

Yes. Uploads run in their own queue that outlives the window: closing Delta Drive, switching to another screen or closing the panel doesn't stop them.

A strip along the bottom shows how many are left and how fast they're going; open it to see each file's progress, speed and time remaining. Big files go up in pieces, so a dropped connection carries on where it left off instead of starting again. Anything that keeps failing stays in the list marked as failed rather than quietly disappearing.
