File name issue with Script

Hello,

I am using the below script to download a file everyday:

# Connect to SFTP server using a password
open FTP DETAILS
# Download file
get /*.zip c:\temp\backup.zip
# Exit WinSCP

The problem is that every time I run the file it asks me to overwrite or rename the file as the name already exists.

is it possible to add in a command to automatically add in the date so that it downloads without an issue?

Many Thanks
Ryan

WinSCP should not ask for overwrite confirmation. Assuming you are using the latest version of WinSCP.

Anyway, to add a date use:
get /*.zip c:\temp\backup-%TIMESTAMP#yyyy-mm-dd%.zip

See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scripting#timestamp
