The file transfer dialog will not accept a path pasted into the edit box above the folder listing.
The folder lists are the Windows 3.1 style without a tree, that requires the user to click, scroll, click, scroll, click, scroll, etc to navigate. Ideally, modify the file transfer dialog to follow OS conventions for file save/open dialogs, based on recent versions of Windows. At minimum, please make the path edit box editable so it is possible to paste the full path.

agreed, Wish we can paste the path. Everytime i do a file upload, i have to click the path again many times.
It would be great if it can also remember the path last utilized, and also enable to paste path.

TightVNC is a really good program, but this is not up to standard!
Just enable the edit box!
