Script with ls followed by an individual file name gives an error

Using 5.7.7 on Windows 7 in a script. I put a file to the site and have an ls command, followed by the file name, which gives this error from the log:

It seems to think that the file name is part of the path. If I put an asterisk after the file name, it works fine, so that will be my workaround for now.

Because "listing a file" is not supported.

The argument of the ls command has to be a path to a directory, optionally followed by a wildcard:

If you want to retrieve properties of a single file, use the stat command:
