in reply to simple SFTP on windows

Net::SSH2 - it has Net::SSH2::SFTP and it's bundled with the Strawberry Perl distribution - which I personally prefer over ActiveState (put's flame retardant hat on).

    Yes, Net::SSH2 is the way to go, imo.
    However, I recommend using it via Net::SFTP::Foreign::Backend::Net_SSH2 - which uses Net::SFTP::Foreign.
    I don't think these additional modules ship with Strawberry Perl, but installation of them is trivial:
    cpan -i Net::SFTP::Foreign::Backend::Net_SSH2
    I don't know why the OP would have had trouble installing Net::SFTP::Foreign - perhaps it was because of the absence of Net::SSH2.
    Certainly, IO::Pty (which is unusable on native Windows) is not needed.

    Cheers,
