Program settings which should be changed to work with vitalEsafe

Select the WebDrive from the tray at the bottomw of your screen and you will see the screen on the left.

Make the following changes:

Backup Files - Uncheck Backup files if upload fails.

Cache Settings -  Depending on the size of your local hard drive you may want to increase the default size of the cache.  It is VERY important that it be larger than the largest file you intend to upload (currently vitalEsafe is limited to files below 2Gb in size, but that limitation should be removed in a future update).

Options -  If you will be changing the contents of a single account from multiple computers it is  important that you choose Multi-User - Check with server to determine if cache files are up to date.  Without this setting, changes made will not be sensed/reflected on a second system because it assumes it only needs to read the directories once.

Individual Profile Settings - Connection - Increase command timeout to 999 seconds.  This provides adequate time for vitalEsafe to receive, encrypt, and write even a 2Gb file.

HTTP Settings - Uncheck do chunked uploads of large files (WebDrive V8.23 requires this)
Check Enable Persistent Connections
Check Enable 100-continue processing
Uncheck Enable byte ranges on GET (some servers may not handle this)

DAV - If you are sharing files and want locking, put a unique name (your email) in
Lock Owner Property.
Put * in only lock files with the following extensions to lock all files

File - Check Encode filenames in UTF-8
Uncheck Enable Quota Processing
Check Disable Explorer icon handler to prevent file download
