Copy files from Linux to Windows using script

Question

I want to copy files from remote Linux server to my machine via some script which I can run in my machine. I am trying with pscp command but it is showing me network error.

PS C:\Users\Administrator> pscp -pw password root@ipaddress:/var/log/messages \C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop
ssh_init: Network error: Cannot assign requested address

Can anyone suggest what could be a possible error? also if any other alternative available for the same?

@FarhadSarvari I want it to work as a script which I can run in Powershell. — Abhishek, Jul 06 '20 at 15:58
Is remote root login allowed? That's usually considered a security blunder. — stark, Jul 06 '20 at 18:01
