When you right click gray tab, it should connect the session, instead of showing a popup menu. And it indeed does for me. So I need the debug log :) Thanks.

I like your approach :)
Thanks for the beta. I will report further issues when I find them but in new posts as this one is for 5.2.2.

I do not find it confusing. But ok, I'll think about it.

I have sent you an email with debug build to trace this problem.

- Auto-load - meaning only one of all saved workspaces can be marked as default. So upon opening of WinSCP, the default workspace is opened. But do not make a workspace default even if there is only one created. If there are no defaults, upon opening WinSCP to open the login window as usual. Keep this option un-checked by default.

- Auto-save - meaning when this workspace is loaded/opened, WinSCP will save it when it closes. So sessions would be added or removed from this workspace automatically. Keep this option un-checked by default.

So I give up on this issue for now.

However, I do have some suggestions for you to consider:
- workspaces should be editable/reconfigurable also after they are created;
- workspace options should include:

I secretly hope I can get my hands on version 5.2.3 beta :wink:

Re: [BUG][5.2.2] Workspace always saved on exit

I guess, you have enabled saving of this workspace before.

Note that the checkbox reads Enable automatic saving of this workspace, not Automatically save this workspace. Meaning it does enable saving the workspace, if you check it. But it does not disable saving it, when you keep it unchecked, when it is already enabled.

[BUG][5.2.2] Workspace always saved on exit

Open several sessions.
Save workspace; do not check the option "Enable automatic saving of this workspace"
Close WinSCP
Open WinSCP with the new workspace
Open one or more sessions
Close WinSCP
Open WinSCP with the new workspace
Result: the new workspace has included the additionally opened sessions.
