MaximumNumberOfFiles - This property enables you to limit the number of files that a user can add to the upload queue.

Hi jeeten,

Thanks for your post.

I made a demo using the AjaxFileUpload and set its attribute "MaximumNumberOfFiles" as 2.

And it works fine as intended, if I select third file it will alert message "Maximum number of files exceeded".

 <asp:ToolkitScriptManager ID="ToolkitScriptManager1" runat="server"></asp:ToolkitScriptManager>
 <asp:AjaxFileUpload ID="AjaxFileUpload1" MaximumNumberOfFiles="2" runat="server" OnUploadComplete="AjaxFileUpload1_UploadComplete" />

If your code like above however cannot work as intended, I think there some relative javascript file not loaded in your page.

You can check below link for more information or download latest ajax control toolkit.

If you still cannot figure it out, please share more information or code with us. Thanks.

Best Regards!
