 +The first syntax opens the stored session. The second creates the session specified by at least hostname, optionaly by name of protocol, port number, username, password and initial remote path. In both cases, when only hostname is known, only Login dialog is shown with pre-filled hostname. Otherwise connection attempt is started immediately.
 +
 +With ''/upload'' parameter WinSCP uploads specified files to remote directory of session defined using one of the previous syntaxes.
 +
 +With ''/synchronize'' or ''/keepuptodate'' parameter WinSCP performs "Synchronize" or "Keep remote directory up to date" commands respectively on specified session and directories. Dialog to set options is displayed first (Note that this is not intended for automation, see [[scripting]]).
 +
 +Parameter ''/console'' executes WinSCP in console (scripting) mode. Optional batch script file can be set using ''/script'' command. When the script file does not end with ''exit'' command, regular non-batch mode follows. Note that when WinSCP is executed via console interface (''WinSCP3.com''), the ''/console'' parameter is not necessary.
 +
 +When run with ''/update'' parametr, WinSCP only checks for new program version on the program website.
 +
 +With ''/ini'' parametr you may specify path to configuration INI file. It effectively disables using registry as configuration storage.
 +
 +Parameter ''/help'' shows usage (overview similar to this). Note that that parameter is useless unless used from console (Windows command line prompt) on WinSCP console interface, ''WinSCP3.com'', (without it the usage would just flash on the screen, dissapearing immediatelly).
