Crash when remote current directory=""

WinSCP 5.9.2 running on Windows 10 crashes while logging on a plain FTP session to an Isilon host.

I'll try to attach the WinSCP log file. In case I can't, the log file repeats the same 4 lines over 5000 times and then suddenly ends. Apparently, the server is reporting "" as the current working directory for this user.

Thanks for your report.
What is "Isilon host"?

Isilon is a NAS appliance sold by Dell/EMC.

That does the PWD return when you are in a subfolder?

In a subfolder, it still returns 257 ""

The problem happens with a regular user but not with an ID that has full control of the file system. I'll eventually complain to Dell/EMC but for now I can't touch it.

Then, there's nothing we can do about it. WinSCP won't be able to talk to your FTP server.
