scp from Linux to Windows [closed]

Answer 1

Your code isn't working because c:/ or d:/ is totally wrong for linux just use /mnt/c or/mnt/c

From your local windows10-ubuntu bash use this command:

for download: (from your remote server folder to d:/ubuntu) :

scp username@ipaddress:/folder/file.txt /mnt/d/ubuntu

Then type your remote server password if there is need.

for upload: (from d:/ubuntu to remote server ) :

scp /mnt/d/ubuntu/file.txt username@ipaddress:/folder/file.txt 

Then type your remote server password if there is need. note: I tested and it worked.

Answer 2

Try this:

scp /home/ubuntu/myfile C:\users\Anshul\Desktop

Answer 3

Here is the solution to copy files from Linux to Windows using SCP without password by ssh:

1. Install sshpass in Linux machine to skip password prompt

2. Script

   sshpass -p 'xxxxxxx' scp /home/user1/*.* testuser@x.x.x.x:/d/test/

Details:

sshpass -p 'password' scp /source_path/*.* windowsusername@windowsMachine_ip:/destination_drive/subfolder/

Answer 4

You could use something like the following

scp -r username_Linuxmachine@LinuxMachineAddress:Path/To/File Path/To/Local/System/Directory

This will copy the File to the specified local directory on the system you are currently working on.

The -r flag tells scp to recursively copy if the remote path is indeed a directory.

Answer 5

Access from Windows by Git Bash console:

scp root@ip:/etc/../your-file "C:/Users/XXX/Download"

Answer 6

This one worked for me.

scp /home/ubuntu/myfile username@IP_of_windows_machine:/C:/Users/Anshul/Desktop
