The present invention discloses an electronic device, a storage medium and a method for transferring a file. The method for transferring the file includes: submitting a file segment to be transferred to a target device to a transferring queue in a main process; waiting for an interrupt signal; monitoring whether the main process produces upload traffic during a preset time period, and if the main process does not produce the upload traffic during the preset time period, sending out an interrupt request which comprises information that the main process does not produce the upload traffic during the preset time period; stopping waiting for the interrupt signal when a response from the target device or the interrupt request are received.
