| + | ==== [[ini_readonly]] Read-Only INI File ==== | ||
| + | A simpler way to make whole configuration read-only is to use an INI file and set it read-only in a file system. | ||
| + | When INI file directory or the file itself is not writable (for example when the INI file is in ''Program Files'' folder or when it is explicitly set read-only), WinSCP does not preserve its state when exiting. No error message is displayed. Only when you explicitly change configuration (such as when you save [[session_configuration|site]], or submit [[ui_preferences|Preferences dialog]]), an error is shown. You can make WinSCP overwrite a read-only INI file by holding ''Shift'' key, while closing or submitting Preferences dialog. | ||
