Windows 10 uses OpenSSH as its default SSH client and SSH server. SSH is generally used to access Unix-like operating systems, but it can also be used on Microsoft Windows. SCP allows you to copy files and directories from the local system to a remote system or remote system to a local system.

The protocol specification distinguishes between two major versions, referred to as SSH-1 and SSH-2.

SSH provides a secure channel over an unsecured network by using client–server architecture, connecting an SSH client application with an SSH server. SCP or secure copy command copies files and directories from one computer to another in batch. Typical applications include remote command-line, login, and remote command execution, but any network service can be secured with SSH. scp command is being used to copy files from a remote server to a local machine and vice versa. cp -r dirtocopy/ bakdir - Copies just the contents (sub-directories and files) of dirtocopy to a backup directory named bakdir, however dirto. Copies dirtocopy and all its contents (sub-directories and files) to the current directory. According to Wikipedia, the Secure Shell Protocol (SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol for operating network services securely over an unsecured network. If you have access to a bash shell you can use the following command: cp -r /home/dirtocopy.
