WinSCP: Permission denied. Error code: 3 Error message from server: Permission denied [closed]

You possibly do not have create permissions to the folder. So WinSCP fails to create a temporary file for the transfer.

You have two options:

  • Grant write permissions to the folder to the user or group you log in with (myuser), or change the ownership of the folder to the user, or

  • Disable a transfer to temporary file.

    In Preferences, go to Transfer > Endurance page and in Enable transfer resume/transfer to temporary file name for select Disable:

    Prefereces > Transfer > Endurance> Enable transfer resume/transfer to temporary file name > Disable
