Re: ("Copying files from remote side failed.","Could not open file for reading.")

The error comes from the server. Is it always a .tmp file you have a problem with? Maybe you should exclude those files from the synchronization.

("Copying files from remote side failed.","Could not open file for reading.")

Hello! I'm trying to automate downloading backups from my server.
I use Task Scheduler in Windows 10.

Code of script 
@echo off
 
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" ^
  /log="D:\..\..\n.log" /ini=nul ^
  /command ^
      "open ftp://..................." ^
   "synchronize local D:\BACKUP /./.. " ^
       "exit"
 
set WINSCP_RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%
if %WINSCP_RESULT% equ 0 (
  echo Success
) else (
  echo Error
)
 
exit /b %WINSCP_RESULT%

and an error occurs because there are several files that are being used, with an error message
