- | * 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. | + | |

- | ···* 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 recursivelly// 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//). | + | |

- | * 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 [[&url(tommy)|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//. | + | |

- | ····* 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. | + | |

- | * 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 overwritting 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 [[http://ao.mine.nu/|Paul Ward]]). | + | |
- | * Fixed potential security issues when decoding SFTP packets. | + | |
- | * Confirmations during background transfers can be supressed 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 re-formated. 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''). | + | |
- | * Window title and application taskbar button can show name of current directory (default) or current full path. | + | |

- | * 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 extremelly 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. | + | |
- | * Internal editor window never falls off the desktop work area. The same is true for default (fresh installation) position of main window. | + | |
- | * 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 to 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 occured 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. | + | |
- | * Bug fix: Excluding remote files containing colon ('':'') from transfer have not worked correctly. | + | |

- | * 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. | + | * Switching to //Segoe UI// font with slightly larger size (9) as recommended for Windows Vista and newer. All windows are now slightly larger accordingly and their layout was unified. |
