The Stop command halts the current transfer or action.

The Stop command and Stop button halt the transfer or action currently in progress. Stopping actions may leave them half-completed, for example, if you were uploading a file, an incomplete file may be left on the server; if you were downloading a set of files or folders, some but not all of the files may be on your local drive; or if you stopped a listing of files, the file list may show only a partial list of files.

You can also stop the current action by typing Command-. (Command-period).

If you stopped the download of a file, you may be able to restart it later — see the resuming an interrupted download help topic.
