Ok, thank you. Unfortunately, this is not compatible with my current workflow to use Keypirinha with the WinSCP package and just type "winscp [sitename] ENTER" to directly connect.

Also documented here:
Integration with KeePass

Thank you! I will try if this process could work for me.

I manage my connection list in KeePass.
I share the KeePass file between several computers and a cell phone using secure file share. The ini file has only info on each machine for the connections that machine makes.

Just press Ctrl+U on an entry in the list, then WinSCP opens and logs in.

In KeePass an entry looks like this

General Tab
Title: serviceadm@storage (WinSCP)
User name: serviceadm
Password: REDACTED
URL: storage
(this one is on a LAN)

Properties Tab
Override URL: cmd://"WinSCP.exe" /ini="%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Config Files\WinSCP\corporate.ini" "sftp://{USERNAME}:{PASSWORD}@{URL}"

KeePass can be found here: https://keepass.info/download.html

Great. Thank you so much!

I have added this request to the tracker:
Issue 2329 – Allow splitting INI file to multiple files
You can vote for it there.

(aware that this is 8 years after the OP's original question)

This would be a very important feature to me. I also manage my winscp.ini in Git to sync connections across 3 machines. Solving merge conflicts is a pain due to the automatically generated logging entries. It would be great if at least the connection list could be split from the main winscp.ini.

How does everybody manage their connection lists otherwise? I have 50+ entries and manually updating ini's on several computers is impossible.

Nothing new, sorry. There does not seem to be a demand for this feature.

Are there news on this? Thanks!

Great! Thanks!

I hope to see this feature soon :D I can do beta testing if you like...

Thanks for your suggestion. Will consider it.

Hi,

first big thanks for WinSCP! We moved here after using FileZilla for years without caring about plain text password storage :twisted:

I use WinSCP portable and but it with the WinSCP.ini under Git control to sync my saved connections between two machines. But because of the ini vars JumpList, LastStoredSession and RunsSinceLastTip the WinSCP.ini is modified all the time even if I just open WinSCP.

Now my request: Can you please consider splitting WinSCP.ini into two files? For example WinSCP.ini for all the real config options and connections and Workspace.ini for all the permanently changing / temporary vars like JumpList, LastStoredSession and RunsSinceLastTip?

Thanks in advance!
