I have added this topic to FAQ:
https://winscp.net/eng/docs/faq_delete_synchronized_files

Question based on the messages above:

I don't want to use the command rm after get or synchronize. In that case, I will take the risk files being deleted that are added to the remote folder during the synchronize or get process. Is there an option to delete the files within the synchronize process or use local filenames-list in the rm command-'array'?

To make things clear:
I need a program to:
*Check if files are added to the remote folder
*Download added files
*Delete the files in the remote folder that are available locally
*No files may get lost during the process

Thanks,
Mark

Then you should use get -delete instead of synchronize, shouldn't you?

Hi, I have something like that, how can I automate the delete file after synchronize. Would you help me with the command.

so far This is my automated command-line syntax

Thanks

I was expecting that

Correct.

Hi

I have written this script :

Execution (would) delete(s) all files in balbla, that don't exist in test AND
transfer all files to blabla, that don't match my filter

My question : How can I modify the script to make it delete all those files with "*_110-*; *_210-*"?
Or do I have to get them away with rm?

Thanks
