-The WinSCP .NET assembly ''winscpnet.dll'' is a .NET wrapper around WinSCP's [[scripting|scripting interface]] that allows your code to connect to a remote machine and manipulate remote files over SFTP, FTP, WebDAV, S3 and SCP sessions from .NET languages, such as [[#csharp|C#]], [[#vbnet|VB.NET]], and others, or from environments supporting .NET, such as [[library_powershell|PowerShell]], [[library_ssis|SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)]], ASP.NET and Microsoft Azure WebSite.+The WinSCP .NET assembly ''winscpnet.dll'' is a .NET wrapper around WinSCP's [[scripting|scripting interface]] that allows your code to connect to a remote machine and manipulate remote files over SFTP, FTP, WebDAV, S3 and SCP sessions from .NET languages, such as [[#csharp|C#]], [[#vbnet|VB.NET]], and others, or from automation environments supporting .NET, such as [[library_powershell|PowerShell]], [[library_ssis|SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)]] and Microsoft Azure WebSites and Functions.
The assembly is also exposed to COM, and as such it can be used from variety of other programming languages and development environments--e.g., [[library_com_wsh|WSH-hosted active scripting languages]] like JScript and VBScript, [[library_vb|Visual Basic for Applications (VBA)]], [[library_perl|Perl]], and Python.

-You can use the assembly to write scripts that [[guide_custom_commands_automation|extend functionality of WinSCP GUI]].+You can also use the assembly to write scripts that [[guide_custom_commands_automation|extend functionality of WinSCP GUI]].
The library is not a general purpose file transfer library. It particularly has a limited support for an interactive processing, and as such it is not well suited for use in GUI applications. The library is not a general purpose file transfer library. It particularly has a limited support for an interactive processing, and as such it is not well suited for use in GUI applications.
-As the assembly drives WinSCP Windows executable, it cannot be used in .NET Core projects. For the same reason it is also difficult to use the assembly within a restricted environment like a web server, that limits or even restricts execution of external processes.+Because the assembly uses ''winscp.exe'' internally, it is also difficult (but not impossible) to use the assembly within a restricted environment like a web server (e.g. with ASP.NET), that limits or even restricts execution of external processes.
