 +===== [[4.1]] 4.1 beta ((2008-03-20)) =====  
 +  * SSH core upgraded to [[&url(puttychanges)|PuTTY 0.60]]. It brings following changes: 
 +    * Support for "local proxying", where a network connection is replaced by a local command. 
 +    * Various cryptographic improvements in SSH-2, including SDCTR cipher modes and a workaround for a weakness in CBC cipher modes. Support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange with SHA-256 was not included due to performance problems. 
 +    * Support for the Arcfour cipher in SSH-2. 
 +    * When Pageant is running and an SSH key is specified in the configuration, WinSCP will now only try Pageant authentication with that key. This gets round a problem where some servers would only allow a limited number of keys to be offered before disconnecting. 
 +    * Support for SSH-2 password expiry mechanisms, and various other improvements and bugfixes in authentication. 
 +    * A change to the SSH-2 password camouflage mechanism in 0.58 upset some Cisco servers, so we have reverted to the old method. 
 +    * If authentication challenge includes multiple prompts, all are displayed in one form. 
 +    * Random seed file is being stored to application data folder when possible. 
 +    * Bug fix: SSH-1 connections tended to crash, particularly when using port forwarding.

 +    * Preference of GSS key exchange algorithms can be configured on //Key exchange// tab of login dialog. 
 +    * Session option //Allow Kerberos 5 ticket forwarding in GSSAPI/SSPI// obsoleted (was probably useless anyway). 
 +    * Session option //Server realm// renamed to //Service principal name//. 
 +  * Added several switches to scripting commands to extend their capabilities with functionality available in GUI already: 
 +    * ''-mirror'' and ''-criteria'' [[bug>59]] for ''synchronize''; 
 +    * ''-delete'' for ''synchronize'' and ''keepuptodate'' (obsoletes option ''synchdelete''); 
 +    * ''-permissions'', ''-nopermissions'' and ''-speed'' [[bug>109]] for ''get'', ''put'', ''synchronize'' and ''keepuptodate''; 
 +    * ''-delete'', ''-preservetime'' and ''-nopreservetime'' for ''get'' and ''put''; 
 +    * ''-timeout'', ''-privatekey'' and ''-passive'' [[bug>132]] for ''open''. 
 +  * Added switch ''/hostkey'' to command-line and ''open'' script command to automatically accept host keys with given fingerprint. 
 +  * Environment variables can be used in scripting commands. The syntax is ''%NAME%''. [[bug>76]]

 +  * In file panel, file sorting by date and size is by default descending. 
 +  * Speed limit can be actually set in KiB/s. 
 +  * Speed limit can be set for background transfers. [[bug>115]] 
 +  * Custom command to execute SFTP server binary may be specified. This allows using ''su'' to run SFTP server. [[bug>84]] 
 +  * Transfer settings were removed from transfer options dialog to simplify it. The settings can be changed by selecting transfer settings preset or by invoking custom transfer settings dialog (the same way as for synchronization). 
 +  * More than one host key for a host may be accepted. 
 +  * It is possible to cancel connection attempts of background transfer. 
 +  * Proxy settings to check for updates can be automatically detected from system and IE settings. 
 +  * Improved keepalive mechanism of FTP sessions by listing current directory in regular intervals. 
 +  * On upgrade, setup informs if there are installed translations that are not present in new release anymore. 
 +  * Setup removes obsolete translations from previous installations. 
 +  * When synchronized browsing is on and entered directory does not exist in an opposite directory, WinSCP offers to create it. 
 +  * Saving password to stored session must be explicitly requested using checkbox on save session dialog (replaces previous warning message box). [[bug>136]]

 +  * New patterns for custom commands: ''!/'' expands to current remote path, ''!@'' expands to current session hostname. ''!u'' expands to username, ''!p'' expands to password. [[bug>48]] 
 +  * Escaping of special characters is reversed on upload. [[bug>32]] 
 +  * Custom FTP commands can be executed after login. [[bug>162]] 
 +  * Transfer and session toolbars automatically stretches to right window edge. 
 +  * Command line panel is toolbar (can be docked elsewhere). 
 +  * Address and command line drop-down boxes follow the toolbar style. 
 +  * On Explorer interface, path on address toolbar is editable. 
 +  * //KiB// is used instead of //KB// for kilobyte. 
 +  * Estimated time is shown instead of elapsed time in queue list. 
 +  * //Open in PuTTY// makes PuTTY use Telnet or SSH session for FTP sessions in WinSCP. 
 +  * Host key confirmation dialog has an option to copy the key into clipboard. 
 +  * //Server does not use UTF-8// changed to //UTF-8 encoding for filenames// and moved to //Environment// tab, as it is used also by FTP protocol. 
 +  * //Time zone offset// moved to //Environment// tab, as it is used also by FTP protocol. 
 +  * ''Shift-Del'' deletes to recycle bin, if deletion to recycle bin is disabled, and vice versa. 
 +  * Opening bookmarks and home directory do not trigger synchronized browsing anymore. 
 +  * Drive drop-down menu shows //My documents// when current local directory is below "My documents" folder. 
 +  * It is possible to optionally overwrite stored password with new one, if authentication with original stored password fails. 
 +  * When renaming a file within file panel, only filename (without an extension) is selected. 
 +  * When storing remote file to local temporary directory, full remote path is recreated locally to make identification of file easier (particularly in external editor). [[bug>4]] 
 +  * Several improvements to internal editor: 
 +    * Search direction can be specified. 
 +    * Support for multiple undoes and redo. 
 +    * Tab size can be defined. [[bug>12]] 
 +    * Improved toggling of word wrapping. 
 +  * //Print// command added to default custom command examples. [[bug>6]] 
 +  * When operation finishes while minimized, window is no longer restored. Instead taskbar balloon is shown. 
 +  * When saving session with password, option is given not to store the password. 
 +  * Changed default local tunnel port number range to "IANA Dynamic and/or Private Ports range". [[bug>173]] 
 +  * Change: Log file path patterns changed to match those of custom commands. 
 +  * WinSCP starts on the same monitor it was closed the last time. [[bug>135]] 
 +  * Notification balloon is not displayed after background upload of edited/opened file is finished. [[bug>143]]

 +  * Size of directory change cache is limited. 
 +  * Error messages of background transfer are actually presented as errors. 
 +  * Initial size of Commander window is increased. 
 +  * Improved initial placing of Commander window. 
 +  * Improved ''call'' command description with respect to FTP protocol. 
 +  * ''ftp'' protocol added to command-line syntax help. 
 +  * Most options on //SCP// tab of login dialog are disabled, when SCP protocol is not selected, to avoid confusion (although they can actually be used when SCP fallback is administered). 
 +  * Cleaned icons for //Open in PuTTY// and //Log Window//. 
 +  * Default ping interval session option is not saved anymore. 
 +  * Patterns hint next to proxy telnet/local command on Proxy tab of login dialog. 
 +  * Change: Transfer option //Preserve read-only// is off by default. 
 +  * On download with LF to CR/LF EOL conversion, CR EOL's were needlessly removed. [[bug>67]] 
 +  * UTF-8 byte-order-mark is stripped on upload. [[bug>82]]

 + 
 +===== 3.8 beta ((2005-12-20)) ===== 
 + 
 +  * Synchronization enhanced:  
 +    * When option //Preview changes// is turned on, checklist of synchronization actions is displayed, giving user option to review and confirm them all at once. 
 +    * Option //Preview changes// works for timestamp synchronization too. 
 +    * When list of directories watched by function //Keep Remote Directory Up To Date// is changed, new count is shown on log view. 
 +    * Synchronization delay for function //Keep Remote Directory Up To Date// is configurable (only directly in configuration files). [[bug>735]]

 +  * Commands //Edit New File// and //Create Directory// moved to //New > File// and //New > Directory//. Command //Add/Edit Link// split into //Edit Link// and //New > Link//. Submenu //New// is also accessible from panel's context menu. 
 +  * New panel option for Commander interface: //Full row select// (turned on by default). Can be turned off to make panel's context menu more accessible. 
 +  * New toolbar with custom commands. 
 +  * New toolbar for Commander interface with buttons //Upload// and //Download//, useful when you want to transfer file without having the source panel active. 
 +  * New command (switch) for queue //Disconnect Once Empty// closes the session, if it's idle, when the last scheduled background transfer is finished. 
 +  * System administrators can enforce display of authentication banners. 
 +  * System administrators can restrict connection to servers without having their host keys accepted in advance. 
 +  * Context menu of console output display includes command to resize the console window to fit the command output.

 +  * Size of the console window is preserved. 
 +  * When changing file properties, ''chgrp'' and ''chown'' are called before ''chmod'', because they change file permissions (SCP-only). 
 +  * If the session is closed due to option //Disconnect when operation finishes//, associated background transfers are terminated immediately, not only after the user acknowledges the closure. 
 +  * It is now possible to edit two files with the same path/name located on different servers.

 +  * Bug fix: Failure when changing file properties on SFTP server supporting UTF-8. 
 +  * Bug fix: Incorrectly formatted message "Unknown principal". 
 +  * Bug fix: Hint on status bar for transfer setting preset selector incorrectly showed preset configuration. 
 +  * Bug fix: Custom transfer settings dialog invoked from context menu on synchronization dialog did incorrectly allowed changing all settings, even when time-stamp-only synchronization was selected.

 + 
 +===== [[3.7.6]] 3.7.6 ((2005-08-15)) ===== 
 +  * Editing files enhanced: 
 +    * There can be several external editors configured. 
 +    * Appropriate editor for particular file can be selected automatically by file mask (i.e. file extension, directory, etc.). 
 +    * Command //File(s) > Edit (alternative)// replaced with sub menu listing all available editors. 
 +    * Command //File(s) > Edit new// has now keyboard shortcut originally used by //File(s) > Edit (alternative)//. 
 +    * File can be optionally opened in editor as response to double-click. 
 +    * Change to internal editor configuration is immediately applied to all already opened editor windows. 
 +    * Search options are shared among opened internal editors. 
 +    * Search dialogs have context help. 
 +    * Bug fix: Application could not be closed as long as any internal editor was opened. 
 +    * Bug fix: "Total replacements" message sometime incorrectly appeared, even when //Replace All// was not used. 
 +    * Bug fix: Find results sometime appeared over the main window instead of over the editor window. 
 +    * Bug fix: Search dialogs were sometime incorrectly placed. 
 +  * Authentication banner, if any, is shown during authentication. 
 +  * New functions for queue management: //Suspend//, //Resume//, //Suspend All// and //Resume All//. 
 +  * Unix-style approach to Daylight saving time (client does adjustment) is made default. This can affect interpretation of timestamps of your files. Use function //[[task_synchronize_full|Synchronize]]// with option //[[ui_synchronize#options|Synchronize timestamps only, not files]]// to resolve it. 
 +  * Button //Calculate// on Properties dialog calculates also total number of files/directories/symlinks. The button newly also does not show up, when all selected directories are actually symlinks. 
 +  * Several changes to synchronization: 
 +    * Added new option //Selected files only// for functions //Synchronize// and //Keep Remote Directory Up To Date//. It limits the synchronization to files selected in either panel only. 
 +    * Removed option //No confirmations// for functions //Synchronize// and //Keep Remote Directory Up To Date//. Confirmations are now disabled always. 
 +    * Directory number limit for function //Keep remote directory up to date// can be overruled. 
 +    * Event log is shown for function //Keep remote directory up to date//. 
 +    * When synchronizing timestamps, only same-sized files can be affected optionally. 
 +    * For //Synchronize timestamps only, not files// mode the only item of transfer settings that can be set (and that is displayed) is exclusion/inclusion mask. 
 +    * //Keep remote directory up to date// can be interrupted by ''Esc''. 
 +    * Bug fix: Failure when synchronization before //Keep remote directory up to date// was interrupted. 
 +    * Bug fix: When time-stamp synchronization was configured as default synchronization action, it was incorrectly inherited by //Keep remote directory up to date//. 
 +  * Several changes to scripting: 
 +    * New scripting option ''option batch abort''. When set, WinSCP will abort the script as soon as any of the commands fail. Values ''on'' and ''off'' are still available with unchanged behavior. 
 +    * New scripting options ''include'' and ''exclude'' to set include/exclude masks. Only one of the two can be set at a time. 
 +    * ''Ctrl+C'' during script file processing breaks whole script, not only current command. 
 +    * During synchronization names of directories where change happened are displayed only. 
 +    * Bug fix: Script file loading errors were displayed in message box instead of console. 
 +    * Bug fix: Scripting have not inherited configured synchronization settings. 
 +    * Bug fix: Incorrect parameter syntax in help for scripting command ''open''. Thanks to Gottfried Haider. 
 +    * Bug fix: Second consecutive ''put'' command from script file overwrites output of previous one. 
 +  * When overwriting of remote file fails, WinSCP can try to delete file and create new one (SFTP only). 
 +  * New custom command option //Copy results to clipboard//. 
 +  * Workaround for OpenSSH limit of 256 KiB for size of SFTP packet. Consequence was occasional interruption of transfer with error "Connection has been unexpectedly closed. Server sent command exit status 11." 
 +  * All new sessions can be automatically opened also in PuTTY. 
 +  * The Office XP-like look can be turned off from //Interface tab// of Preferences dialog. 
 +  * WinSCP remembers what location profile folders were opened. 
 +  * New //Type// column for remote panel (hidden by default). 
 +  * Default private key can be specified using ''/privatekey'' option. 
 +  * User is notified when selected private key file does not contain private key in supported format or when the private key is for different SSH version than preferred one. 
 +  * New file selection command //Restore Selection// which restores file selection before last file operation. 
 +  * Characters not allowed in Windows file names are now replaced by ''%XX'' (where ''XX'' is hexadecimal representation of character ASCII code), instead of underscore (''_''). 
 +  * Increased chance that files information on overwrite confirmation message are properly aligned (English version only). 
 +  * New optional file selection mode in Commander interface, where mouse behaves as in Windows Explorer and keyboard behaves as in Norton Commander. 
 +  * Files dropped on newly created desktop icons, associated with particular stored session, are uploaded. 
 +  * File mask ending with slash matches directories only. This is particularly useful for include mask to match any directories using mask ''*/''. 
 +  * When appending (including alternative resume), the target file is not deleted, when transfer is canceled by user. 
 +  * Custom command parameters are escaped for remote commands. For ''!?prompt[\]?default!'' pattern, escaping can be avoided using optional slash (''\''). 
 +  * Added hint links to several dialogs. They open popup hint describing syntax of masks and custom command patterns. 
 +  * About dialog redesigned. URL links can receive focus, to allow opening the URL using keyboard. Additional URL link can be associated with translation. 
 +  * Confirmation of overwriting read-only files can be suppressed the same way as overwrite confirmation, i.e. by disabling confirmation for synchronization, background transfers or in script. 
 +  * When saving location profile, existing profile can be overwritten (names of existing profiles are provided for selection in drop-down menu), giving limited ability to edit profiles. 
 +  * When one of the directories of location profile does not exist anymore, the latter is opened, before error shows up. 
 +  * Added new error messages as defined by SFTP-6. 
 +  * Maximal size of read block as requested by SFTP server using ''supported2'' extension is respected. 
 +  * New option to lock placement of toolbars. 
 +  * Added ''/command'' option to usage screen (''/help''). 
 +  * //Cache directory changes// checkbox is disabled when //Cache visited remote directories// is unchecked and SCP-only mode is selected. 
 +  * Empty proxy password is not "saved" to reduce session data size. 
 +  * When reloading directory content, file panel tries to preserve its position. 
 +  * When checking //Never ask me again// checkbox, all answer buttons are disabled except for the positive one, to avoid confusion. 
 +  * More informative error message when setting permissions of uploaded directory fails. 
 +  * File masks can be separated also by comma (in addition to semicolon). 
 +  * Dialog for entering deselection mask has //Deselect// title now. 
 +  * It is now possible to specify both password and private key on Login dialog (server may require double authentication). 
 +  * Confirmation is required before stored session is deleted. 
 +  * Too long authentication prompts can be revealed also using keyboard. 
 +  * Queue command //Delete// renamed to //Cancel// to avoid confusion with delete file command. 
 +  * Usage of ellipsis (...) and capital letters in menus revised. 
 +  * Splitters have hints describing their specific functionality. 
 +  * Double-clicking some of the splitters hide component they resize. 
 +  * Commands toolbar has initially vertical layout when undocked. 
 +  * When reading of local file during upload fails, more descriptive error message is shown and //Skip// button is not offered (SCP only). 
 +  * When automatic popup of background transfer prompts is disabled, taskbar button at least flashes when WinSCP is on background. 
 +  * Obsolete temporary directories are no longer checked, when WinSCP is run for service task (such as registration for URL handling). 
 +  * Bug fix: When using MS Virtual Desktop Manager, the main window of WinSCP was enlarged, when its virtual desktop was activated. Other associated issues are pending. 
 +  * Bug fix: Stored session name was not recognized in URL's containing path suffix. 
 +  * Bug fix: When remote file was opened (not edited) in an external application that opens multiple files in window (process), WinSCP incorrectly suggested to enable support for this kind of //editors//. Now it suggests to configure the application as an external editor. 
 +  * Bug fix: Wrong default action was highlighted in remote file context menu when resolving of symbolic links is turned off or impossible. 
 +  * Bug fix: When directory was removed its cache was not, making it possible to enter no longer existing directory by typing its path manually. 
 +  * Bug fix: SCP fallback was not working in 3.7.5. 
 +  * Bug fix: Include mask was not saved in configuration. 
 +  * Bug fix: Command //Open in PuTTY// was not working when current session was not opened from stored session. 
 +  * Bug fix: When there were too frequent changes to current local directory the panel content was never refreshed. 
 +  * Bug fix: Failure when directory was reloaded while file was being renamed. 
 +  * Bug fix: Layout of some toolbars was not restored when using INI file as configuration storage. 
 +  * Bug fix: Occasional failure when opening Preferences dialog. 
 +  * Bug fix: Custom transfer settings dialog had some controls incorrectly disabled when invoked from Keep remote directory up to date dialog by double-clicking the transfer settings panel. 
 +  * Bug fix: Custom transfer settings dialog had incorrect help context. 
 +  * Bug fix: Incorrect files were selected when using ''Shift-click'' after reloading directory after using ''Left'' or ''Right'' keys to select first or last file. 
 +  * Bug fix: Incorrect help context for message informing about autoselection of transfer settings preset. 
 +  * Bug fix: Incorrect behavior after two consecutive clicks on //Execute// command of queue. 
 +  * Bug fix: It was possible to enter invalid mask to transfer setting preset autoselection rule. 
 +  * Bug fix: //Help// button on console window was incorrectly anchored. 
 + 
 +===== 3.7.5 beta ((2005-05-07)) ===== 
 +  * Transfer settings presets: 
 +    * In addition to default transfer settings, any number of presets can be configured on //Presets tab// of Preferences Dialog. 
 +    * User can make any preset default on //Transfer Settings// toolbar. 
 +    * The preset can be also made default automatically based on current hostname, username, remote and local directory. 
 +    * User can load settings from any preset on Upload, Download, Synchronize and Keep Remote Directory Up to Date dialogs. 
 +  * Transfers settings can be configured on Synchronize and Keep Remote Directory Up to Date dialogs. 
 +  * New Office XP-like look and functionality of menus and toolbars: 
 +    * Nicer design. 
 +    * Toolbars can be docked virtually anywhere. They can be even left floating. 
 +    * When the whole toolbar does not fit on a window, dropped off buttons can be still shown using drop-down menu. 
 +    * Support for large fonts. 
 +    * Limitations to be resolved yet:  
 +      * Session drop-down menu cannot be resized anymore. 
 +    * All that thanks to [[&url(tb2k)|Toolbar2000]] library by Jordan Russell and [[&url(tbx)|TBX]] library by Alex A. Denisov. 
 +  * Check for updates improved: 
 +    * Automatic check in regular interval can be enabled. See //Updates tab// on Preferences dialog. 
 +    * New toolbar //Updates// with icon indicating the new version. 
 +    * In addition to information about the new version, WinSCP can show message from the server (even when new version is not available yet). 
 +    * The check can pass thru HTTP proxy server. 
 +    * To allow new features, WinSCP sends to the server its current version and UI language. 
 +  * Several changes to custom commands: 
 +    * Custom commands that does not work with files selected in file panels (no ''!'', ''!&'', ''!^!'' patterns) are now officially supported. Such commands can be executed anytime, even if no file is selected. Also they are executed only once, despite several files being selected. Options //Apply to directories// and //Execute recursively// cannot be configured for them. Command //Disk Space Usage// added as an example (''df''). 
 +    * Possibility to run ad hoc custom command (//File(s) > Custom Commands > Enter//). 
 +    * Custom command that works with local files can be run from the main menu even when local panel is active (Commander interface only). 
 +    * History for custom command parameters. 
 +    * Output to //stderr// and exit code 1 are not considered as error for custom commands. 
 +    * Example custom command //File compare// is not shown on Windows 95/98 saving necessity to tag it as //NT/2k/XP only//. 
 +  * Context sensitive help improved: 
 +    * Button //Help// added to all dialogs. 
 +    * Virtually all main menu items have context-sensitive help (''F1''). 
 +    * Many message boxes have context-sensitive help. 
 +    * Context help points to specific tab help for Preferences dialog. 
 +  * Preferred SFTP protocol version can be set. Particularly useful to workaround bugs in implementation of particular SFTP version (both in WinSCP and the server). 
 +  * Functionality of SFTP server bug //Does not use UTF-8 for SFTP4 and newer// workaround extended. It is now titled //Server does not use UTF-8//. By setting it to //Off//, usage of UTF-8 can be forced even for SFTP3 and older (useful for servers using MBCS natively). Thanks to [[https://blog.teatime.com.tw/|Tommy Wu]]. 
 +  * Function //Keep remote directory up to date// can handle subdirectory addition and removal. 
 +  * Function //Synchronize// can optionally synchronize timestamps of existing files only, instead of actual files (SFTP only). 
 +  * New ''/command'' command-line option to pass command to scripting. 
 +  * File size can be optionally used as comparison criterion for synchronization. 
 +  * Files can be excluded from transfer negatively using //Include mask//. 
 +  * All links now point to ''winscp.net''. 
 +  * Several changes in setup: 
 +    * Link "Using public keys for SSH authentication" is no longer created. 
 +    * Link "Documentation" is added to Start menu. 
 +    * Setup allows user to install WinSCP without accepting the GPL license. 
 +    * Some Start menu icons have comment (displayed as hint). 
 +  * Direction of synchronization can be saved to preferences.  
 +  * SSH core upgraded to [[&url(puttychanges)|PuTTY 0.58]]. It brings following changes: 
 +    * Bug fix: Failure when connecting through SOCKS proxy. 
 +  * SFTP moved before SCP in Login dialog navigation tree as well as in protocol selection box to emphasise current state of art. 
 +  * SFTP server bug //Misinterprets file timestamps prior to 1970// workaround introduced in 3.7.4 can be now configured from //SFTP tab// of Login dialog. 
 +  * Added workaround for some versions of F-SECURE SSH server that incorrectly use attribute ''SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_UIDGID'' with SFTP4. 
 +  * Transfer queue list distinguishes process of "transfer size calculation". 
 +  * Confirmation messages unified to always show //Cancel// button. Previously some contained //Abort// instead. 
 +  * Improved error reporting for //Keep remote directory up to date// function. 
 +  * Function //Keep remote directory up to date// can perform full synchronization on start. By default user confirmation is required. 
 +  * Confirmation of transfer resume can be suppressed the same way as overwrite confirmation, i.e. by disabling confirmation for synchronization, background transfers or in script. 
 +  * Function //Open in PuTTY// is available on //Commands// toolbar. 
 +  * Error messages have button //Skip All// to skip all futher errors during batch operation. 
 +  * Single notation consistently used to refer to SSH protocol versions. 
 +  * Proxy password is stored encrypted, while maintaining compatibility with older versions and PuTTY. 
 +  * Some error messages that were previously tagged as //Confirmation// are now properly tagged as //Error//. 
 +  * During upload, when overwriting remote file fails and user selects //Retry//, overwrite confirmation is not requested again. 
 +  * //Editor// tab of Preferences dialog redesigned. 
 +  * Fixed potential security issue in console interface tool ''WinSCP3.com'' (thanks to Paul Ward). 
 +  * Fixed potential security issues when decoding SFTP packets. 
 +  * Confirmations during background transfers can be suppressed from //Background tab// of Preferences dialog too. 
 +  * Both compare directory criterions (//Compare by time// and //Compare by size//) can be unselected making WinSCP select only files not existing in the opposite directory. 
 +  * Functions //Synchronize// and //Keep remote directory up to date// do not delete files by default. This affects fresh installation only! 
 +  * Server host key fingerprint verification box reformatted. It also shows key type now. 
 +  * When synchronizing and comparing directories, the time difference of one second is ignored (for compatibility with FAT file systems). It is also ignored when transferring newer files only. 
 +  * New scripting command ''call'' to run arbitrary remote shell command. If the current session does not support this (SFTP), separate shell session is automatically opened. Alias for the command is ''!''. 
 +  * File masks can be directory specific, where meaningful (text file mask, exclusion masks). For example mask ''*/public_html/*.php'' matches only PHP files in directory ''public_html''. It does not matter what slashes are used, the mask always matches both remote and local directories. 
 +  * Lines beginning with '';'' or ''#'' are ignored in script files (can be used for comments). 
 +  * When connected to Vandyke VShell server for Windows, the remote directory tree shows list of drives on the server (implemented support for SFTP extension ''fs-roots@vandyke.com'').

 +  * Back/forward menu is preserved when switching sessions. 
 +  * Reverted 3.7.2 change "File panel reflects change of system icon font in run time". It caused file panel fonts to be extremely large on some systems. 
 +  * When the same file is downloaded to editor again and support for editors that open multiple files in one process is enabled, the file is downloaded to the same temporary directory as before. This allows editor to reload the updated file (if supported by the editor). 
 +  * Optional remote file panel column //Link target// showing target of symbolic links. 
 +  * Context menu for "name" column header of file panel has item //By extension// to sort the column by file extension. 
 +  * Logging level can be configured from GUI (on //Logging tab// of Login and Preferences dialog). 
 +  * When changing permissions of one directory, the checkboxes cannot be toggled to "undefined" state unless //Recursive// options is checked. 
 +  * Progress dialog shows //Time left// instead of previous //Time estimated//. 
 +  * Checkboxes on permissions box toggle in order: unchecked, checked, grayed. 
 +  * Existing target file is removed before resumable transfer to verify that user has sufficient permissions as soon as possible (SFTP-only). 
 +  * When downloading to or uploading from the temporary directory (e.g. when editing files), user is not bothered with full path. 
 +  * When uploading from editor using background transfer, the confirmations are always suppressed despite settings of background transfers. 
 +  * Fallback to pre-3.7.2 method of detecting existence of remote directory, in case the server does not support ''SSH_FXP_LSTAT'' request (FTPshell Server).  
 +  * WinSCP is no longer sending SFTP extensions ''winscp@winscp.sourceforge.net'' and ''software@generic-extensions''. Instead ''vendor-id'' is used as proposed by SFTP version 6. 
 +  * Smarter queue visibility toggling. 
 +  * Link to logging configuration from log window toolbar.

 +  * Session name cannot contain some special characters. Especially slash ''/'', that caused problems when parsing URLs. 
 +  * New //No to all// button on confirmation message, where user can select between appending source file and alternate method for transfer resuming. It makes WinSCP resume transfer whenever it finds smaller file in target directory with the same name. 
 +  * New //No to all// button on confirmation message for alternative method of transfer resume. 
 +  * Bug fix: Command //File(s) > Move to// was not disabled for SFTP version 1 and older. 
 +  * Bug fix: It was not possible to change local drive using drop-down menu, when the last used path on the drive was removed. 
 +  * Bug fix: Functions //Synchronize// and //Keep remote directory up to date// have ignored file for one minute after the target file was changed just at whole minute (0 seconds). 
 +  * Bug fix: Failure when browsing using back/forward buttons on some mouses and there is no path to browse back/forward. 
 +  * Bug fix: Random seed file was not saved at all in most cases. 
 +  * Bug fix: Misleading error message was shown when file in subdirectory was excluded by filemask (SCP-only). 
 +  * Bug fix: When uploading file from editor, //Exclude mask// was not ignored, what prevented editing some files. 
 +  * Bug fix: Check for suspicious files containing ''/'' or ''\'' have not considered Unicode filenames (SFTP-only). 
 +  * Bug fix: ''Shift+Ctrl+Left/Right'' in path input boxes was not selecting text. 
 +  * Bug fix: WinSCP failed when keepalive occurred during initialisation of separate shell session. 
 +  * Bug fix: Timestamp was incorrectly shown in terminal window. 
 +  * Bug fix: ''cd'' command in terminal window on separate shell session have not changed path in main SFTP session. 
 +  * Bug fix: Function //Keep remote directory up to date// has watched even directories excluded from transfers.

 +  * Function //Keep remote directory up to date// now can watch for up to 500 directories (62 previously). 
 +  * Allowed downloads to UNC paths. 
 +  * When logging is enabled and several sessions (including background transfer connections) are opened at a time, several log files are generated. 
 +  * Exit code is propagated to console interface tool, ''WinSCP3.com''. 
 +  * GUI application, ''WinSCP3.exe'', waits until user pressed any key before exit, when run with ''/?'' parameter. 
 +  * When focused control (like directory tree) is hidden, focus is moved to the last used file panel. 
 +  * Default (installation) size of the Commander interface is larger, if the screen resolution allows it. 
 +  * Log file includes timestamps of all events.

 +  * Scripting commands ''get'', ''put'', ''ls'', ''lls'', ''chmod'', ''mv'' and ''rm'' support wildcards. 
 +  * SSH core upgraded to [[&url(puttychanges)|the latest development snapshot of PuTTY (2005-01-28)]]. It brings following changes:  
 +    * New //Key exchange tab// on Login dialog. It allows configuration of key exchange algorithm selection policy. It also include options to configure regular key re-exchanged based on time and data transferred. 
 +    * Support for IPv6 (unfix.org's IPv6 patches up to level 10). IP protocol version can be configured on //Connection tab// of Login dialog. 
 +    * Removed bug //Chokes on Diffie-Hellman group exchange// from //Bugs tab//. 
 +    * Fixed key exchange problems with some servers. 
 +    * Software version strings for adhere to SSH standard. 
 +    * Fixed some potential crashes. 
 +    * Support for diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 group exchange . 
 +    * Keyboard-interactive authentication is offered as long as server offers it, rather than only once, unless the server responds to our initial request with failure. 
 +    * Support for ssh.com "des-cbc@ssh.com" authentication. 
 +  * SFTP protocol optimization, especially for dealing with very small files and directories and when transferring over very fast connections. Downloads, uploads and directory listings now take up to 80%, 80% and 40% less time, respectively. Please report your personal experiences with the change, positive or negative. 
 +  * Implemented support for editors that open multiple files in one process (window).  
 +    * WinSCP can delay deletion of temporary local file until its exit. This is allowed only if //Allow multiple opened files (editors)// is enabled. 
 +    * The behavior can be turned on using option //External editor opens multiple files in one window (process)// (off by default). 
 +    * If the option if disabled and the editor closes too early, WinSCP suggests user to enable the option. 
 +  * When switching sessions, the panel state can be optionally preserved, including selected file and sort column/order. To disable this, go to //Panels tab// of Preferences dialog. Option //Do not change local directory when switching sessions// on //Commands tab// renamed to //Do not change state of local panel when switching sessions// and now affects this feature too. 
 +  * When INI file is used as configuration storage, SSH host key cache is stored into the INI file too. 
 +  * Transfer queue shows transfer speed and elapsed time. 
 +  * With SFTP it is now possible to enter the traverse-only (''chmod 110'') directories. 
 +  * Menu //Files > File Names// includes new command //Copy URL to Clipboard//. The URL format is: ''<protocol>:%%//%%<session>/<path>/<file>''. 
 +  * WinSCP now detects dropped connection immediately. It also responds to server keepalive requests immediately (''keepalive@openssh.com''). 
 +  * It is possible to edit remote files whose filenames contain characters not allowed on Windows. 
 +  * Inline rename box on remote panel now accepts characters not allowed on Windows, but allowed on other systems. 
 +  * Window //server/protocol information// shows server host key fingerprint.  
 +  * New //SFTP tab// on session dialog. It contains configuration options for detection of two known bugs in SFTP servers. The first bug //Reverses order of symlink command arguments// is known on all OpenSSH servers. The second bug //Does not use UTF-8 for SFTP4 and newer// is known on Foxit WAC server.  
 +  * When overwriting local read-only file, the read-only attribute is preserved. 
 +  * It is now possible to overwrite local hidden file (the attribute is preserved). 
 +  * When changing local drive using drive drop-down menu the current working directory on the drive is opened instead of root directory (Commander interface only). 
 +  * Partially transferred files (''.filepart'') have the same icon as full file would have with "partial file" overlay over it. 
 +  * It is possible to change width of session drop-down menu on //Session// toolbar. Just drag the empty space on the right of the drop-down menu. 
 +  * Queue sessions are kept alive if the main session is configured so. As side effect dropped connection is detected immediately (no error is displayed), not only after there is transfer attempt over it. It avoids failing transfer just because of dropped connection. 
 +  * When secondary shell session is dropped on background, no error is displayed and the main session is no longer closed. 
 +  * If the edited file is saved while the previous change is still being uploaded, the error is no longer displayed, re-upload is scheduled instead. 
 +  * //Language// button on Login dialog includes //Get More// command to open translation download page. 
 +  * Menu //File Names// is included in remote panel context menu too. 
 +  * The command //Files > Open// opens the remote file locally always. It does not imitate double-clicking anymore (when symbolic link resolving is not enabled/supported, double-click tries to open remote file as if it were symlink to directory). 
 +  * Internal editor shows name of the session in the window title. 
 +  * File panel scrolls whole page when visualising batch operation progress. 
 +  * File panel reflects change of system icon font in run time. 
 +  * The same remote file cannot be edited twice. 
 +  * If reading directory takes too long, number of files read is shown on WinSCP button on taskbar. 
 +  * Several changes in installer: 
 +    * When installer finds obsolete default translation in the installation directory, it displays a warning with option to delete the translation. 
 +    * Bug fix: Removed //flags: unchecked// string from the //Add installation directory to search path// checkbox. 
 +    * Bug fix: Last few characters of long lines were cut off. 
 +  * Proxy password box is disabled for SOCK4 proxies, as SOCK4 does not support passwords. 
 +  * When transferring files using scripting commands ''get'' and ''put'', without explictly specifing operation mask, the mask ''*.*'' is used, overriding default operation mask set in GUI. 
 +  * Wildcards in operation mask (''*'' and ''?'') can be delimited using backslash (''\''). 
 +  * It is no longer possible to check //Disconnect when operation finishes// during total transfer size calculation before file transfer. 
 +  * Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from host and user names. 
 +  * Links to WinSCP homepage in //Help// menu updated to point directly on respective Wiki topics 
 +  * First attempts for context help. ''F1'' key now opens WinSCP documentation page. On some dialogs it now opens directly help for the dialog. 
 +  * Installation path can be added to system search path from //Integration tab// of Prefenreces dialog. 
 +  * Bug fix: When synchronizing local directory from console mode using SCP protocol, some files were printed twice. Once with path, once without. 
 +  * When listing directory with SFTP protocol, files whose filenames contain slashes or dots-only are ignored. 
 +  * Bug fix: Duration indicators failed to display more than 24 hours. 
 +  * When WinSCP in console mode were executed from batch file its console title was incorrectly preserved for next commands of the batch 
 +  * Bug fix: Some errors in console mode were displayed in message box instead of being printed on console 
 +  * Bug fix: Scripting command ''ls'' has never shown year when full file timestamp was known. Now it shows full timestamp (including year and full precision time). 
 +  * Bug fix: WinSCP crashed when timeout message was shown while reading directory content. 
 +  * Bug fix: Scripting command ''get'' with SCP protocol printed downloaded directory twice, the second time with statistics of the last file downloaded. 
 +  * Bug fix: Fixed several bugs when downloading files for which the server incorrectly reports unreasonable file sizes. 
 +  * Bug fix: WinSCP refused to start, when using ''/ini'' parameter without session name parameter. 
 +  * Bug fix: The download of files smaller then 4 KiB could not be interrupted. 
 +  * Bug fix: Attempt to open non-existing local directory (Commander interface only) have not displayed any error message. The first existing parent directory (if any) was opened instead. 
 +  * Bug fix: When downloading file to editor, //Exclude mask// and operation mask were not ignored, what prevented editing some files. 
 +  * Bug fix: When using ''ls'' command with ''%%--full-time%%'' option (SCP protocol) the leading spaces in the filenames were omitted while reading directory. 
 +  * Bug fix: //Time estimated// showed incorrect values for resumed file transfers. 
 +  * Bug fix: When downloading file with SCP protocol, any leading spaces in the filename were lost. 
 +  * Bug fix: Possible crashes when having more sessions opened in parallel. 
 +  * Bug fix: When using INI file as configuration storage, the quotes enclosing configuration options (particularly path to PuTTY executable) were lost. 
 +  * Bug fix: Directory was randomly selected in remote panel when switching sessions. 
 +  * Bug fix: When upgrading from 3.7 and older, command //Open in PuTTY// stopped working if path to PuTTY included spaces. 
 +  * Bug fix: Items in queue display menu may have been sometime disabled. 
 +  * Bug fix: When uploading, the contents of selected directories was counted twice into "total size", making progress indicator inaccurate. 
 +  * Bug fix: When restoring maximised main window it was sometime wider than before maximisation. 
 +  * Bug fix: Fake "Ext" column could be shown by mistake. 
 +  * Bug fix: Sorted On Exit Crash after long periods of use.
