But you still need the open command.
And using stored sites in the script is not recommended:

When I use winscp.com I get a "no mapping for the unicode character exists in the target multibyte code page" error

Make sure the script uses UTF-8 encoding.

/script not firing

I have a Windows CMD file - 

@echo off

start "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.exe" /script=C:\HyveSync\Automation\KBStaffSync.txt /xmllog=C:\HyveSync\Automation\log.txt


The script file is this:- 

# Automatically abort script on errors

option batch continue

# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous

option confirm off

# Connect using stored connection

sftp://KBStaff



# Force binary mode transfer

option transfer binary

 

synchronize remote C:\Tomcat\Websites\Shared\staffwiki /kbstaff

 

# Disconnect

close

exit


But when I fire the CMD file either by using the shortcut or from command line, nothing seems to happen and my log file is empty, but if I use the WinSCP console and copy/paste the commands from the script file into the WinSCP console then it works fine.
