Can't upload files

I'm connecting to my university's servers with mobaxterm. When I try to drag and drop a file, the loading screen shows it's 0%, and nothing seems to happen since.

I had this problem too. Changing the file transfer protocol from SFTP to SCP solved it for me. From the answer provided here:

  • Edit your session properties (MobaXTerm > Home > User sessions > your server > right-click > Edit session)
  • SSH > Advanced SSH settings > SSH-browser type > SCP (I chose "enhanced speed", but you may need "normal speed")
  • Restart your session
