 +**__File Transfer__**

 +? Transfer files in parallel
 +! Select when it is fine to transfer files in parallel. E.g. on some remote locations, it might not be not a good idea.
 +
 +? Use intermediate file on copy
 +! A *.partial~ file will be created and renamed only when the transfer was successful. This prevents fragmented files in case the transfer was aborted.
 +
 +? Verify file checksum on copy
 +! Compare original file and copy with a checksum. This will detect corrupted files. Though, it as well will largely increase the time required to copy.
 +
 +**__Search__**
 +
 +? Include Subfolders
 +! Select when search should be done recursively. Depending on the access speed, it might make sense to use recursive search only for local files.
