Credit to #Hackoo for the code below. I don't really know what's wrong with it, but it doesn't seem to wanna download the file (http://mollernielsen.eu/AutomaticShutdown/test.bat), which doesn't really make sense to me.
path = "http://mollernielsen.eu/AutomaticShutdown/test.bat"
pos = InStrRev(path, "/") +1
Const DownloadDest = "http://mollernielsen.eu/AutomaticShutdown/test.bat"
LocalFile = Mid(path, pos)
Const webUser = "admin"
Const webPass = "admin"
Const DownloadType = "binary"
dim strURL
function getit()
dim xmlhttp
set xmlhttp=createobject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0")
'xmlhttp.SetOption 2, 13056 'If https -) Ignorer toutes les erreurs SSL
strURL = DownloadDest
'Pour l'authentification de base, utilisez la liste ci-dessous, ainsi que les variables + d'utilisateurs? laisser passer
'xmlhttp.Open "GET", strURL, false, WebUser, WebPass
xmlhttp.Open "GET", strURL, false

objStream.Type = 1 'adTypeBinary

There's no actual SaveToFile method called in the script, but there should be. The stream is being saved to an object in memory, but never written to disk. Stick this above objStream.Close:

The following code i used for Uploading code without loop and code works fine while i use no loop function.
dim strURL
Dim password
Dim username
Set wshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
UploadDest= wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("https://webdav.pcloud.com/Public%20Folder/")
UploadFile = wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%username%.txt")
username = "abc#gmail.com"
password = "abc"
sData = getFileBytes(UploadFile, UploadType)
Set HttpReq =createobject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
strURL = UploadDest & "/" & UploadFile
HttpReq.Open "PUT",strURL,False,username,password
HttpReq.send sData
function getFileBytes(flnm,sType)
Dim objStream
Set objStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
if sType="binary" then
objStream.Type = 1 ' adTypeBinary
else
objStream.Type = 2 ' adTypeText
objStream.Charset ="ascii"
end if
objStream.Open
objStream.LoadFromFile flnm
if sType="binary" then
getFileBytes=objStream.Read 'read binary'
else
getFileBytes= objStream.ReadText 'read ascii'
end if
objStream.Close
Set objStream = Nothing
end function
But when I use above code in loop i got syntax error in line no:12
function getFileBytes(flnm,sType)
I used following code to upload file in loop in every 10 sec .
set i = 0
Do While i = 0

You can't define a Function inside a Loop
Rewrite like this to define the function outside of the loop:
Dim i
Do While i = 0
dim strURL

Dim username
Set wshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
UploadDest= wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("https://webdav.pcloud.com/Public%20Folder/")

strURL = UploadDest & "/" & UploadFile
HttpReq.Open "PUT",strURL,False,username,password

All have same result. They don't download the file. Sometimes one of them freezes the computer and I have to manually power down.
They do, after time, download (but don't) and only shows file as 0kb. If I change
objXMLHTTP.Open "GET", strFileURL, False
to
objXMLHTTP.Open "GET", strFileURL, True
It instantly shows up in folder and shows 0kb
Either True or False, waiting 30+ minutes does nothing to size of file. The actual file size is 1,874,886 kB and only takes a couple minutes to download from website.

I managed to find this script to use and backup my files, this is a little more complicated then I need it to be.
I do not need to enter a backup path - from and too every time I run it however this is a handy option for other projects but I would like to backup from a set file path and save to a set file path to save time.
The other issue with this script is the Cancel button does not work, this is an issue I have had before and fixed but I cannot remember how to make the Cancel button function.

How can I change the
