- | ===== Session Management ===== | ||
- | The list box shows list of already saved stored sessions. You should select there a session to work with before pressing one of the //Login//, //Edit//, //Delete//, //Rename// and //Shell icon// buttons. Double clicking a session has same effect as selecting it and pressing //Login// button as long as at least host name and username are filled. | ||
- | |||
- | The sessions can be organized into folders. Expand/collapse folder by double-clicking on its name. | ||
- | |||
- | The //New// button resets session options on the Login dialog to the default ones and switches to [[ui_login_session|Session tab]]. | ||
- | |||
- | The //Edit// button loads options for selected stored session to Login dialog and switches to [[ui_login_session|Session tab]] to allow modifications. To edit existing stored session, first load it, modify your options and than save it back (under the same or different name). | ||
- | |||
- | The //Delete// button deletes selected stored session or session folder. Deleting a sessions folder deletes all the sessions it contains. | ||
- | |||
- | Use the //Rename// button to rename selected stored session or session folder. | ||
- | |||
- | Use the //New folder// button to create new session folder. To create subfolder, use path syntax "folder/subfolder" (Select the parent folder before pressing button to have the path prefilled). Note that empty folders are not preserved. | ||
- | |||
- | The //Set defaults// button sets current session (not selected stored session) options as defaults. It means that they will be used when WinSCP starts next time and whenever //New// button is pressed. | ||
- | |||
- | Use //Shell icon// to create [[integration#desktop_and_quick_launch_icons|Desktop]] and [[integration#send_to|'Send To']] shortcut icons for selected stored session. Note that if you delete the stored session the existing icons will not work anymore. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Tools Button ===== | ||
- | //Tools// button displays menu with various utilities: | ||
- | * [[ui_import|Import]] (to import stored sessions from PuTTY) | ||
- | * [[ui_cleanup|Cleanup]] (to clean up data stored on your computer by WinSCP) | ||
- | * [[updates|Check for Updates]] (to query WinSCP homepage for updates) | ||
