 +===== 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 //New// button resets session options on the Login dialog to the default ones and switches to [[ui_login_session|Session tab]]. These are the same options as seen when WinSCP starts up.
 +
 +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.
 +
 +Use the //Rename// button to rename selected stored session.
 +
 +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)
