-	Some features allowed with [[protocols\|SCP protocol]] are not supported by [[protocols\|SFTP protocol]]. This includes execution of [[remote_command\|remote command]] and duplication of remote file. To support these features with SFTP protocol, WinSCP can open separate shell session, to perform the commands on. The shell session is opened automatically (with [[ui_pref_environment#confirmations\|suppressible confirmation]]) when you attempt to use any of the mentioned features. After the command is executed, the shell session will be kept in background for future use.	+	Some features allowed with [[protocols\|SCP protocol]] are not supported by [[protocols\|SFTP protocol]].

To support these features with SFTP protocol, WinSCP can open separate shell session, to perform the commands on.

	For the feature to work, WinSCP must be able to open the shell session similar to one used by SCP sessions. So while you are using SFTP protocol, you may still need to alter options on //[[ui_login_scp\|SCP tab]]// of Login dialog as long as the defaults do not work. Also for the feature to work the shell must use the same path syntax as the SFTP server.		For the feature to work, WinSCP must be able to open the shell session similar to one used by SCP sessions.
