Importing Sites
WinSCP allows you to import sites from PuTTY SSH client, KiTTY SSH client, FileZilla FTP/SFTP client, OpenSSH config file, WinSCP INI file and host keys from OpenSSH known_hosts file.
To open Import session dialog go to Tools > Import Sites on Login dialog.
On the dialog, select if you want to import from PuTTY, KiTTY, FileZilla, OpenSSH config, WinSCP INI file or known_hosts files.
You will receive list of all sites/host keys stored in the selected application or configuration file. Next to each site name there is a checkbox. Use it to select sites/keys you would like to import. By default WinSCP selects only sites with supported protocol,1 for which there is no WinSCP site with the same name. You can alter the selection as you like.
PuTTY/KiTTY
For PuTTY/KiTTY, WinSCP looks for sites in registry.
FileZilla
For FileZilla, WinSCP looks for sites in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\FileZilla\sitemanager.xml.2
INI file
You can use this option to selectively import only some sites from WinSCP INI configuration file (as opposed to importing whole configuration). Use Browse button to browse for the location of the INI file.

OpenSSH known_hosts
For OpenSSH known_hosts files, WinSCP looks to C:\Users\username\.ssh\known_hosts. You can also paste hosts key in OpenSSH format from clipboard using Paste button.
WinSCP imports also SSH host keys from the source application cache for hostnames from all selected sites. So you do not need to verify again the SSH host keys that you have verified in the other application already.
When you finish your selection, press OK to import the sites. Note that when the name of imported site collides with name of an existing site, WinSCP appends number to the end of the name to name it unique.
For session options that the source application does not have, WinSCP will use the defaults.
