Paid on delivery
I need a script that I can run on a Windows PC to copy files stored on a remote computer (that is not on the same network). The script should also delete the files on the remote computer once they have been copied. I have attached a Powershell script that copies a file from the remote computer when I specify the filename. However, I need a script that can loop through and copy all the files from a specified folder (and any subfolders) on the remote computer and then delete them.

In your existing script, you get the source file using HTTP. In order to be able to download all files, the HTTP server must allow a directory listing; otherwise there is no way to know the existing file names. Also, the web server must implement the DELETE verb (not so common) to be able to delete files remotely. In short, HTTP is not a good option. If you control the remote computer, set up a FTP server instead. (On Windows with IIS, just add the FTP service; on Linux, probably it's already there). Listing files and directories, downloading, and deleting them is a lot easier with FTP. It may be an old protocol, but it has been designed exactly for that purpose. If you go for FTP, I can provide a script for transfering a complete tree, with folders and subfolders. Other solutions exists too, we can discuss them by PM.

I've written many Powershell scripts, and this one doesn't sound too tricky. I'd love to work with you on this to get this completed. Cheers!
