Is there anyway to load only selected number of files using winscp .. there are more than 50000 files which hangs my winscp!

This seems to be an issue faced by a few users and there doesn't seem to be a way to fix it. You might try one or more of the following:

  • When logging in, uncheck the option to Resolve symbolic links under Environment > Directories [doc]
  • Under Preferences > Transfer, uncheck the Calculate total size option [doc]
  • Try the command line
  • Not entirely sure about this one and whether it even makes sense in your case, but you might also try excluding/including certain file-types.[doc]
