| - | You can have shortcut icons in 'Send To' menu in file context menu of Windows Explorer, which can be displayed for example by right-clicking any file. The shortcut can either open WinSCP [[ui_login|login dialog]] only or [[ui_login_save|stored session]] directly. In both cases after the session is opened, the files selected previously in Windows Explorer are [[task_upload|uploaded to the server]]. WinSCP can then either close itself or open main window. | ||

| - | ===== [[url]] SCP and SFTP Protocols URL Addresses ===== | ||
| - | WinSCP can be registered to handle SFTP and SCP protocol URL addresses. For supported URL format see [[commandline|command-line options]]. If the path part of the URL does end with slash (''/'') WinSCP starts with the path as initial remote directory. If the path does not end with slash, the file (or directory) specified by it is downloaded. | ||
| - | |||
| - | To register WinSCP to handle the URL addresses use [[installation|installer]] or go to [[ui_pref_integration|Preferences dialog]]. | ||

| - | If current user's permissions allow, WinSCP register itself for all users. Otherwise it registers for current user only. | ||

| - | ===== Search Path ===== | ||
| - | From [[installation|installer]] or [[ui_pref_integration|Preferences dialog]] you can add WinSCP installation directory to search path (environment variable ''PATH''). This is particularly useful if you use [[scripting|console/scripting mode]]. | ||
| - | |||
| - | To change the search path, the installer modifies ''autoexec.bat'' on Windows 95/98/ME and changes machine (all users) registry keys on Windows NT/2000/XP and newer. | ||
