If you want to protect your script from such inadvertent change or if you want to make the script portable, you should isolate its configuration from graphical mode explicitly.

-The best way to do that is to configure all the options you need using script commands only (''[[scriptcommand_option|option]]'' command, switches of other commands, [[session_url|session URL]]), or if no such command is available, using [[rawsettings|raw site settings]] and [[rawconfig|raw configuration]]. Finally force scripting mode to start with the default configuration using ''[[commandline#configuration|/ini=nul]]'' command-line parameter.+The best way to do that is to configure all the options you need using script commands only (''[[scriptcommand_option|option]]'' command, switches of other commands, [[session_url|session URL]]), or if no such command is available, using [[rawsettings|raw site settings]] and [[rawconfig|raw configuration]].

Alternatively [[config#export|export your configuration]] to a separate INI file and reference it using ''[[commandline#configuration|/ini=]]'' command-line parameter. Also consider setting the INI file read-only, to prevent WinSCP writing to it, when exiting. Particularly, if you are running multiple scripts in parallel, to prevent different instances of WinSCP trying to write it at the same time.
