| - | Note that even when you are running WinSCP on the same machine as before, just under a different account (including different system account, such as when using Scheduler, SSIS, etc), you may not have the same configuration. By default WinSCP uses account-specific hive of registry to store its configuration, which is not accesible by other accounts. You may want to use [[config|INI file]] instead to ease configuration sharing. | + | Note that even when you are running WinSCP on the same machine as before, just under a different account (including different system account, such as when using Scheduler, SSIS, etc), you may not have the same configuration.

| If you are not able to find what differs between environments, turn on [[logging|session logging]] in both of them and compare the logs. It should become obvious.
