I am able to transfer files to a remote session, however I been pretty unsuccessful at retrieving files from it. The remote system is a Windows 7 machine with PowerShell v2.0, from Windows 10 Enterprise.

I was originally trying to retrieve a folder but now I decided to try something more simple, a simple text file until I get this working.

I believe the first error is a bug and the file should still copy. When I was transferring files to the remote machine it gave me the same error but the file still transferred over.

cmdlet: Copy-Item "C:\Users\Public\Test.txt" -Destination "C:\" -FromSession $session

Errors:

Copy-Item : Unable to index into an object of type System.IO.FileInfo.

I would really appreciate some help, thanks!
