That's what the code does.
It moves only the files that were really transferred.
Read the code!

Dear Martin Sir,

Thanks for your reply.

As you mentioned, I am trying to Make it in powershell.

In Powershell, I am successful upto Copy and move files.
But as mentioned earlier, I am trying to Skip the newly appeared file to move during the session.

that Newly appeared file moved directly to Backup without copying.

pls help

This is difficult to do with a simple scripting.
You better switch to WinSCP .NET assembly (and PowerShell).

Hello Sir,

After a long time I need your help.

The last when you helped, It works

Now I want to modify this script.

# moving remote files after sucessful download.
option batch on
option confirm off
# Connect
open ftp:buti:[email protected]
option transfer binary
#Change local Directory
lcd D:\BUTITEST\M1
cd /test1/M1
get *.pdf
mv *.pdf Done/*

#Disconnect
exit

here I want to List the files which are available in that folder,

and after transfer it should move only listed files to Done folder.

If any new file appear while session is on, It must skip it and run in next session.

pls help

You cannot force WinSCP to rename a file over an existing file.
Cannot you just delete the target folder contents beforehand? rm 2406/*

To use a timestamp in the script you can use a syntax like %TIMESTAMP#yyyy-mm-dd
See https://beta.winscp.net/eng/docs/scripting#timestamp

Dear martin Sir,

Thanks for the code you provide, It works for moving the files.

But I have one issue here. If the File is already there? then It must rename it with any suffix or betterway to overwrite.

I had manually execute the command.. And it shows Following Error...

Plz help..

/m1/done
winscp> lcd d:/sftp
d:\sftp
winscp> get *.pdf

Second thing i would like to ask you that, If in t he remote directory daily a new folder created with Today's Date..

Can we script it with Date to access that folder?

Please answer..

1) You do not need to re-open the session for every folder.
2) I assume that *.pdf is the right mask.
2) To move the files to a subfolder, use mv *.pdf subfolder/*
