Workspaces
This feature is available only in the latest beta release.
WinSCP can save and restore your whole workspace at once. Workspace consists of set of sites you are connected to.
If you connect to the same set of sites every time you use WinSCP, you can enable automatic workspace saving. To open workspace quickly, you can place shortcut to your saved workspace on desktop.

When using workspaces you should make sure that Remember last used directory is enabled for your sites, so that the workspace is restored with the same directories as when you save/close it.
Saving Workspace
To save your workspace go to Session > Save Workspace. A Save Workspace dialog appears. You can save as many workspace as you like. Each saved workspace has its unique name.
Saved workspaces appear at the beginning of site list on Sites page of Login dialog.
When saving workspace you have an option to create desktop shortcut to the saved workspace.
Restoring Workspace
To restore workspace, select it on site list on Sites page of Login dialog and press Login. The workspace saved (including automatic workspace saving), when WinSCP was closed the last time, is automatically selected, when Login dialog opens.
