- | To transfer files, ''scp1'' is used (it is called from within ''scp'').

For correct functionality, it is necessary to satisfy a few conditions. The ''bash'' shell is recommended for working with WinSCP. If your default shell doesn't work with WinSCP, you can make WinSCP use [[ui_login_scp#shell|other shell]]. | For correct functionality, it is necessary to satisfy a few conditions.

Another precondition is that the output of all commands is in English. This mostly concerns names of months in directory listings (''ls -la''). Because of this, WinSCP [[ui_login_scp#other_options|clears all user variables that govern command output]] after login. If command output also reflects some other server settings, it may be necessary to change this before WinSCP can be used. | Another precondition is that the output of all commands is in English.

- | The last necessary condition is the proper output of ''ls -la'' command, which is supposed to include file group name! If the group name is absent, it can be temporarily added using the //[[ui_login_scp#directory_listing|Alias LS to display group name]]// option on the //SCP tab// in the Login dialog. WinSCP will attempt detect support for ''%%--full-time%%'' switch of the ''ls'' command. If the detection causes you problems, you can [[ui_login_scp#directory_listing|disable]] it. | + | The last necessary condition is the proper output of ''ls -la'' command, which is supposed to include file group name!
