| - | * Background transfer queue. When option "Transfer on background" is checked on transfer confirmation dialog, the transfer is added to background transfer queue. Each background transfer opens own SSH session, which is reused by further transfers. Number of simultaneous background transfers can be limited (defaults to 2). Transfer queue list can be displayed on the bottom of main dialog. There is new Transfer/Background tab on Preferences dialog to control queue options. | + | * Background transfer queue.

| - | * Selectable approach towards daylight saving time. As some servers (mostly on Windows) adjust file timestamp with start of DST and some not (Unix), there is new option "Daylight saving time" on "Environment" tab of login dialog to select between the two approaches. For backward compatibility, Windows-style approach (server does adjustment) is selected by default. But it will most likely change soon as Unix-style (client does adjustment) approach is maybe better, while more dangerous and difficult to implement. | + | * Selectable approach towards daylight saving time.

| - | * When not using Drag&drop shell extension, dropping files outside of WinSCP defaulted typically to move operation (instead of usual copy). As this is out of control of WinSCP, there is new option "Allow moving via temporary directory", which is turned off by default. It makes copy effectively the only possible operation and thus the default one. | + | * When not using Drag&drop shell extension, dropping files outside of WinSCP defaulted typically to move operation (instead of usual copy).
