GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE SYSTEM FOR BACKGROUND INTELLIGENT TRANSFER SERVICE

A graphical user interface system for BITS. The system includes a set of input modules, a set of output modules, and notification modules. The set of input modules allow selection of files for transfer to the BITS Server Virtual Directory and activate BITS functions. The BITS functions may include starting file transfer, cancelling file transfer, retrying file transfer, or removing the selected files. The set of output modules show dynamic status and real-time progress of the transfer automatically upon activation of the transfer of the selected files. The set of output modules also display an error message upon detecting an error in the transfer. Further, the notification modules provide a real-time notification on completion of the transfer.
