function cancelUpload() { isUploadCanceled = true; $find('<%=modalpopupvideo.ClientID%>').hide(); var up = document.getElementById('<%=flpvideo.ClientID%>'); up.setAttribute("type", "input"); up.setAttribute("type", "file"); if (window.stop) { window.stop(); } document.getElementById('myHiddenDiv').style.display = 'none'; } — Avinash Pathak

I don't think we can stop uploading file if it once started , the only way to stop it before starting only.

However you can look at similar discussion on below link

You can try with this:

Well, there is probably a much better way to do it but I have found that this stops it (if you can live with the redirect back to the page):

FileUpload1.FileContent.Dispose()
Response.Redirect("http://localhost/somesite/Default.aspx")
