[quote="marcvds"]Hi, I use WinSCP to transfer files to a protected SFTP server using the following script:
[code]@winscp@
# Automatically answer all prompts negatively not to stall

option batch on
# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous
option confirm off
# Connect using a password
# open user:password@example.com
# Connect
open xxxxxxxx:yyyyyyyy@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx-hostkey="ssh-dss 1024 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx"
# Change remote directory
# cd /tmp/SFTP
# Force binary mode transfer
option transfer binary
# Upload the file to current working directory
put c:\Files\*.* 
# Disconnect
close
# Exit WinSCP
exit[/code]

I receive the following error in the log file:

When using the WinSCP GUI, I overcome the problem by disabling the [i]Enable transfer resume/transfer to temporary filename for[/i] in [i]Endurance[/i].

My question is: How can I disable the resume/temporary filename option in scripts when using scripts?

My config is:
WinSCP 4.1.8 (Build 415)
Windows XP Pro SP3

Thanks for your help and congratulations for such a useful piece of software  :D

Hey @Martin – why do you have 'resume file transfer' turned on by default?

Seems like that is not desired in the majority of cases.

It would also save you responding to endless "how do I disable resume file transfer' questions.

Edit 2023:
There's -resumesupport switch in commands like put, get, etc...
E.g.: https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scriptcommand_put#resumesupport
