Moving and Duplicating Remote Files

To move remote files, select them in file panel and then go to File(s) > Move to. You can also drag selected files to different directory in file panel listing or directory tree.

You will be then prompted with dialog, where you can alter destination directory and specify operation mask.

You can also use the function to rename group of selected files using operation mask. Just remove the target part, to make current directory the target.

Note that most servers does not allow moving files across different file systems. Also you may not be able to move file if the target file already exists.

To duplicate remote files, select them in file panel and then go to File(s) > Duplicate. You can also drag selected files to a different directory in the file panel listing or directory tree while holding down the Ctrl key.

You will be then prompted with a dialog, where you can alter the destination directory and specify an operation mask.

Note that duplicating files is not supported by the SFTP and FTP protocols. With SFTP, WinSCP allows you to do so by opening a separate shell session.
