RE: How to delete a file with '&' in its name on SFTP

>I'm not aware of any reason why '&' would be treated special for SFTP. Does the Windows shell prompt do something special with it?
The Windows shell treats the ampersand as a command separator, like a semicolon in bash.
To escape the ampersand, you need to prefix it with a caret character. Example:
H:\>echo Hello & Goodbye
Hello
'Goodbye' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
H:\>Echo Hello ^& Goodbye
Hello & Goodbye
