That seems to be the problem! My traceroute was showing my traffic emerging from Seattle so that makes sense why it was down. Thank you!

You can tell your age by the fact that you were emailing an exe file.

Heck to the yeah. I usually run

rsync -av src/ dst/

Which is verbose and archive mode (keeps mod times, user, etc). You can also add -P for progress.

Here is the man page https://linux.die.net/man/1/rsync

If it gets interrupted, just run that same command again.

Edit: also it’s usually preinstalled on every Linux distro and should be easy to install for Windows too.

Have you tried rsync?

Also SO might mention the documentation is wrong and this is what API XYZ really does.

Pretty sure brain fuck should be on this list.
