PowerShell FTP download files and subfolders

Question

I like to write a PowerShell script to download all files and subfolders from my FTP server. I found a script to download all files from on

Answer 1

For retrieving files /folder from FTP via powerShell I wrote some functions, you can get even hidden stuff from FTP.

Example for getting all files and subfolders (even hidden ones) in a specific folder:

Get-FtpChildItem -ftpFolderPath "ftp://myHost.com/root/leaf/" -userName "User" -password "pw" -Directory -File

You can just copy the functions from the following module without needing any 3rd library installed: https://github.com/AstralisSomnium/PowerShell-No-Library-Just-Functions/blob/master/FTPModule.ps1
