rsync is indeed fiddly. Consider SFTP in your GUI of choice. I mount the folder I need in my file browser and grab the files I need. No terminal needed and I can put the folders as favorites in the side bar.
If you want to use the terminal though, there is
scpwhich is supported on both windows and Linux.Its just
scp [file to copy] [username]@[server IP]:[remote location]That's essentially the same as rsync
Just slower if you already have some of the files there.
