 +===== File operations =====
 +WinSCP can do all basic operations with files, such as copying and moving (to and from a remote computer). It also allows you to rename files and folders, create new folders, change properties of files and folders, and creating symbolic links and shortcuts.
 +
 +One of two selectable program interfaces (based on Norton Commander) allows the user to manage files even on the local computer.
 +
 +Most operations can be done recursively for files in folders. In some cases optionally (changing of file properties), in all other cases it's compulsory (copying, moving, deleting).
