No.

Please attach a full session log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

Are there any known issues with working with Windows Services? I'm trying to implement the same thing using Windows Service application, and it won't copy files.

I don't know what happened to my last comment, but I wrote to say that this works! Thank you so much man, and I appreciate it!

Ahhh, sorry man, I've tried this approach, but it won't do the trick :(
Just nothing happens...

I know that, and that's great, and it works! Unfortunately, after I've downloaded files locally, I can't delete them using session.RemoveFiles. It works on my computer, but it won't budge on server, so I'm trying to use commands.

You probably want to do session.GetFiles("folder/*","folder\",true,null). This won't delete the folder, just the files in it.

Hi there! I just can't get this darn thing to work! I need to download files from folder, check if they all have been transferred, then delete if they have. I've tried using session.GetFiles("folder","folder",true,null), but this deletes whole folder which is bad. I've also tried using session.RemoveFiles, but it just won't delete files one by one on the remote server. Now I'm trying to use session.ExecuteCommand, but the following problem arises. I'm using .ppk private key to authenticate with server, and for SFTP I use CORE FTPServer. Please HELP! Also, there is no option on the server to allow shell/command.

Authentication failed.Exception: Server refused to start a shell/command

Inner exception: WinSCP.SessionRemoteException: Authentication log (see session log for details):
Using username "faruk".
Authenticating with public key "rsa-key-20150211".

Authentication failed.

Log from server:

Also chunk of my code:

SessionOptions options = new SessionOptions
{
Protocol = Protocol.Sftp,
HostName = "xxx.xxx.xx.xx",
UserName = "faruk",
Password = "xxxxxx",
SshPrivateKeyPath = @"path\priv.ppk",
GiveUpSecurityAndAcceptAnySshHostKey = true
};

using (Session session = new Session())
{
session.Open(options);

session.ExecuteCommand("cd folder");
...
}
