Home directory is server-side settings. You cannot change it from WinSCP. However you can instruct WinSCP to use some specific directory as default instead of home directory. See "Directories" tab on login dialog.

Jail can be used to force user to stay only in some (usualy home) directory (or its subdirectories). IMHO it is not a usual way to change home directory.
