WinSCP not "seeing" files that basic OS FTP does

2018-01-08 21:49

Using WinScp 5.11.3 Build 7995 with Commander Interface.

Connect to remote site at IP Address using auto mode.

Files listed does not agree with files listed by OS ftp command.

Several *.bmp and *.jpg files are missing from WinScp Commander remote site listing, but several *.bin files do show.

Don't know if this is a bug or something I am doing wrong.

OS is Windows Server 2012R2.

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

To generate the session log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you can mark the attachment as private.

What if you disable Support for listing of hidden files (you have to first set Use MLSD command for directory listing to On)?

What do you get in ftp.exe for dir command?
