When I run it manually I am logged in with the same account that runs it as a scheduled task.
Sorry I have no more ideas.

How do you run it manually? Do you use the same account?
- jpratt
I think maybe it is timing out while waiting to connect, but when I manually launch the scheduled task (right click, run now) it correctly waits for the response from the server and transfers the files.
Because I can manually run the scheduled task I don't think it has anything to do with the key.
Here's the log

unable to run as a scheduled task
Having problem getting WinSCP to run as a scheduled task on a windows machine.
I have a scheduled task running nightly that calls winscp.cmd which looks like this:
the script looks like this:
It runs if I manually run the scheduled task.
I have a scheduled task running nightly that calls winscp.cmd which looks like this:
"C:\Program Files\WinSCP\WinSCP.exe" /console /script=winscp_transfer.txt /log=C:\pep\logs\era_transfer.txt
the script looks like this:
# Automatically answer all prompts negatively not to stall
# the script on errors
# option batch on
# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous
option confirm off
# Connect
open <username>:<password>@server.com
# Force binary mode transfer
option transfer binary
# Download file to the local directory c:\era\
get *.* c:\era\
# Remove transferred files from server
rm *.*
# Disconnect
close
# Exit WinSCP
exit
It runs if I manually run the scheduled task.
