To copy a file over FTP using PowerShell, you can utilize the built-in FTP functionalities in PowerShell. First, you need to establish an FTP connection by using the New-Object cmdlet to create an instance of the System.Net.WebClient class. Once you have established the FTP connection, you can use the DownloadFile method to download the file from the FTP server to your local machine. Alternatively, you can use the UploadFile method to upload a file from your local machine to the FTP server. Additionally, you can set up a script to automate the process of copying files over FTP, which can save you time and effort in the long run.
