I need to download a file from my company's FTP server daily, I tried to do this via batch
open wget --user=USERNAME --password=PASSWORD FTP://000.00.0.0
cd/company/file
get *.* forfiles /D+0
put C:\loads\path
pause
I tried some alternatives seen in the WinSCP documentation, but I was not successful.
To download files from an FTP server using WinSCP from a batch file, you can do:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" /log=winscp.log /ini=nul /command ^
"open ftp://username:password@example.com/ ^
"cd /company/file" ^
"get *.*" ^
"put C:\loads\path\*" ^
"exit"
pause
See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/guide_automation.
Also WinSCP GUI can generate a FTP download batch file template for you.
