I suspected below issue was similar to what i had experiencing. It happened approx. 20-30 days. Though, my method is different since I didn't use the .NET library but using scripting command by triggering winscp.com via System.Diagnostics.Process; When Winscp.exe faulted, I need to log off the current user login and re-login again or starting new RDP session.

Appreciate if you could also sent another debug version of WinSCP for me to investigate further about the issue.

Thanks for your report.
I have sent you an email with a dev version of WinSCP to address you have used to register on this forum.

Hi Prikryl,
I suspected below issue was similar to what i had experiencing. It happened approx. 20-30 days. Though, my method is different since I didn't use the .NET library but using scripting command by triggering winscp.com via System.Diagnostics.Process; When Winscp.exe faulted, I need to log off the current user login and re-login again or starting new RDP session.

Great Thanks!

Hi. I have a similar issue.
I am using 5.1.3 in our production environment.
Approximately every month WinSCP.exe faults and refuses to work via the .NET library or by running the exe.
When I bring up a new login for the production server (new RDP session) the exe works correctly.
So I have to start our software on a new RDP session which causes unwanted downtime.

Following is the dump from event viewer.
Would really appreciate a fix for this one..

Can you send me an email, so I can send you back a debug version of WinSCP to track the problem? Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have sent the email. Thanks.

Never had a problem at all until 5.1.4 which seems to be crashing at the end of downloading.
