Hi !  
Iam using lastest version of NextCloud Sync Client on Windows.  
When sync with server, i saw it upload file by multi chunk 10MB.  
But now i want to disable this feature. Dont split file multi chunk.  
I only want upload whole file (one chunk) like web base upload.  
How can i do it ?  
Thanks everyone !

May I ask why you would want to do that?

You can change the default values manually:

In Gbit-networks, you want to use larger chunks to speed up the transfer. There is some work going on to automatically choose the best chunk size:
