            Looks like WinSCP doesn't like how long it takes for the command to complete. Use Putty instead to login and run the upgrade commands and - after the upgrade is finished - reboot by entering sudo reboot.

                  @mitu Finally got it working ok with your help (THANK YOU), full upgrade using Putty worked although my laptop crashed and corrupted the SD card at around 80% of update and had to reflash it and start all over again.

                  But copying the two files across, then updating via putty worked in short.

                  Thanks,
                  Tom
