How to resume an upload
- Use Pause upload if you need to stop. If your connection drops, keep the tab open while it reconnects.
- To resume after closing the page, return in the same browser and account without clearing browser storage.
- Choose the same original files. Keep their names, contents, message, password and expiry settings unchanged.
- Select Resume upload, or Create transfer link after reopening the page. Elara checks the files and resumes accepted parts when it finds the same upload.
- Complete the upload within 24 hours of starting it. After that, create a new delivery.

How to download a delivery
- Open the link from your sender. You do not need an account.
- Enter the delivery password if your sender set one.
- Choose Download file beside an original. For several files, choose Prepare download to create one ZIP archive with the original folder paths.
- When the ZIP is ready, choose Download all files. If it is still preparing, you can leave and return to the same link. Individual originals remain available.
- Save the files before the delivery expires. A download starting is not confirmation that the recipient saved it.

How to revoke access
- Open My transfers in the browser or account that owns the delivery.
- Find the delivery and choose Revoke access.
- Confirm your choice. New download authorisation is blocked.
- A download already authorised may start for up to 60 seconds, and a stream already started may continue. Revoking a link does not remove a copy your recipient has saved.

How to manage a paid plan

How upload savings work
- Choose your original files as usual.
- Elara prepares suitable files on your device and selects a smaller payload where it saves data.
- Large files reuse matching verified parts your account still holds. New and changed parts are checked before the delivery becomes available.
- The service restores a prepared file and checks the original before making the delivery available.
- Your recipient downloads the original. The delivery receipt shows uploaded file data and upload data avoided, excluding retries and connection requests.

How to keep access to guest deliveries
- Use the same browser to return to My transfers after Quick send.
- Keep browser storage until you have finished managing the delivery. Clearing it removes this browser’s guest identity and local resumption records.
- Create an account if you need to manage deliveries from another device.
- Keep your own originals separately from a delivery link.
