Re: use WinSCP with OpenSSH for Windows

Use so-called CygDrive notation. For example /cydrive/c to access C:\. Please note that /cygdrive directory in fact does not exist, so you must use Open directory (Ctrl+O) function and type /cydrive/c.

question

Proposed solution not working with latest Winscp & OpenSSH version/s. Always end up with error in log :

....
Cannot get real path for '/cygdrive/c'
....

Is there any working variation of this? Thanks in advance.
