When i create a task that executes a .bat file it always returns as failed even though the task succeeded.

the .bat file executes winscp and sends a file to an sftp site.

What do i need to put in my .bat file to avoid this?

It could be a number of reasons an executable, like WinSCP or other part in batch file returns another exit code than 0. It might now be serious.

However, I do recommend that you use built in SCP functionality in VisualCron. We have done the latest fixes for SCP in this version:

I've had a similar issue with batch files running winscp. Try changing the execution context to foreground execution. It got my winscp processes working.
