this the session console.

winscp>

I am using the following command to invoke winscp:
c:\WinSCP\WinSCP.exe winscp.exe /console /script=fcom.txt /log="C:\winscp.log"

My Batch Script is as follow:

# 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 using a password
# open user:password@example.com
# Connect:
open sftp://User:Password@stageftp.fiftyone.com

# Change remote directory
cd /outbox/orders


rm  /outbox/orders/2011-01-24-14-55-34-PO-E4X000000495717.xml.asc
dir
#close
# Disconnect

I pasted my logs for the GUI here -

I'm sorry for late answer. In GUI you are removing different files than in console. Can you post a log files showing removal of the same file?
