Root folder deleted using PutFiles with remove switch enabled

I observe that when using the PutFiles-method, the root folder given as source is deleted as well. Eg. defining "C:\TEMP\DATA" as a source, the DATA folder is deleted too. I tried "C:\TEMP\DATA\" as source but with the same result.

Short question then : how can I keep the source folder?
(yes, an option would be to create it afterwards)

Use C:\TEMP\DATA\* to upload (and delete) just files (and subdirectories) in the directory, not the directory itself.

This worked great however, the files in the C:\TEMP\DATA folder itself are not moved, just sub folders and the contents within these.

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