Can I fetch a file from a remote server from a Putty instance?

I have connected to my remote server using Putty and I want to retrieve a file back to my local machine. How do I do it? Can I do it?

Answer 1

PSCP is a part of the putty package.

Answer 2

The easiest way is to get pscp from the same place you got putty from which copies files over the same protocols as putty.

Answer 3

Assuming an SSH connection, you can use either PSCP as suggest by Pekka, or WinSCP is a fairly decent SCP/SFTP client.
