Velocity Bridge 0.9

Documentation

Everything Velocity Bridge does, what each dialog is asking you, and what to do when a server misbehaves. Written to be read in order the first time and searched afterwards.

Velocity Bridge is a file transfer client for Windows. It speaks FTP, FTPS and SFTP, shows your computer and the server side by side, and moves only what actually needs to move. It sends nothing back to us — no analytics, no account, no licence check.

Installing & first connectionGetting the app, adding a server, and what to do when the first connection is refused. The two panesLocal on the left, remote on the right. Tabs, breadcrumbs, selection and mirrored browsing.

Moving files

Transfers & the queueHow the queue works, why a transfer waits, pausing, resuming after an interruption. When a file already existsOverwrite rules, the pre-flight scan, and how to decide before a byte moves. Keeping folders in syncOne-way and two-way sync, conflict policies, and reading a dry run before you commit.

Working

Saved sitesFolders of servers, importing from FileZilla, WinSCP and CoreFTP, encrypted export. The SSH terminalA shell over the SFTP connection you already have open, and clickable filenames. SecurityHost keys, TLS certificates, fingerprint pinning, and where your passwords actually live. SettingsAll six sections, every option, and what changing it will do.

Reference

Every dialog explainedEach window the app can show you, what it is asking, and which button to press. The Orbital Link themeUPLINK, MANIFEST, ANOMALIES — every invented term translated back into plain file-transfer English. Keyboard shortcutsThe full list, including the ones with no button anywhere. TroubleshootingError messages in the app's own words, and what each one actually means.

What this version cannot do

0.9 is a public beta and it is more useful to know the edges now than to discover them later:

FTP, FTPS and SFTP only. No S3, Azure, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Box or WebDAV yet.
No command-line tool yet.
No visual file diff, and no bulk rename. Renaming one item at a time works.
Windows x64 only. A Linux build is in progress; macOS and ARM64 are planned.

The roadmap has the order the rest is coming in.

Getting help

If something here is wrong, unclear, or missing, that is worth telling us — write to support@redicon.pk. A person reads every message; allow a working day. Including the version from Settings → Paths → Transfer core saves a round trip.
