Where I got these from: 1. win-bash: https://sourceforge.net/projects/win-bash/files/latest/download 2. cwRsync: https://itefix.net/cwrsync If you edit the .sh file: It is a Linux text file so Notepad will not format it well. Later, I found that you may be able to use Windows line endings. Maybe try it. If ssh complains that your private key does not have the correct permissions: Windows > file > Properties > Security > Advanced > remove inheritance, and remove everyone but yourself (and SYSTEM?)
