WinSCP.SessionLocalException: 'Fingerprint for algorithm MD5 not supported'

I am receiving this error now:

WinSCP.SessionLocalException: 'Fingerprint for algorithm MD5 not supported'

Looks like it came after a change of fingerprint or more on the server.

What can I do? my algorithm parameter is "MD5"

Re: WinSCP.SessionLocalException: 'Fingerprint for algorithm MD5 not supported'

What server is that? SFTP or FTPS? Or other? Please attach a full session log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

To generate the session log file, set Session.SessionLogPath. 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.

Re: Log

FileZilla server does not support any checksum calculation command by default.
You can enable HASH command by editing FileZilla Server.xml:
<Item name="Enable HASH" type="numeric">1</Item>

WinSCP.SessionLocalException: 'Fingerprint for algorithm MD5 not supported'

not sure what is the link with scanFingerprint?

Anyway I found out that I needed to use "SHA-1" instead of "MD5". Probably linked to a change of certificate on the thirdparty server
