Abstract
A method and system for file transfer, an instant messaging terminal, and a computer storage medium are described, so as to solve the problem that in case of a poor network environment, too much manual intervention is required when file transfer through an existing instant messaging software encounters a network connection interruption, leading to a low transfer efficiency and poor user. With the present disclosure, an instant messaging terminal is provided with an option of automatic retransfer upon disconnection, an option of automatic reception upon disconnection, and an option of automatic offline-file forwarding upon disconnection, such that when transfer of a file is interrupted, an instant messaging system can automatically retransfer (or resume the interrupted transfer of) the file, thus enhancing efficiency in file transfer.
