Is folder1 subfolder of the initial session folder?
Try using full path instead.
Also make sure you use forward slash for remote paths.

Hi prikryl

folder1 is a subfolder and I just tried using forward slashes as you suggested but nothing happens

what is the difference between winscp.exe and winscp.com
