Re: Transfer all in to a single folder, then all can be downloaded with a single drag and drop

This thread is about scripting.
In GUI, you can achieve this by using Find function to find all files recursively.

Then in the Find window, you can select all the files and use Download to download them to the same directory.

I have written an example script to do this. See the link in my updated answer above.

Multiple files in folders and sub folders to one folder

Hi All

I have a script that connects to a FTP host and download all files on the host to a local destination. I do this by using the sync option.

Is there an option to copy all files from all the folders and sub folders to one single folder locally?

Thx
