WinSCP 4.2.7 Released

The developer of WinSCP, the popular SFTP and SC client for Windows, has been updated by its developer. WinSCP can be used to securely copy files between a local computer system and a remote server. Many webmasters use it for instance to connect to and manage their websites and servers.

WinSCP provides access to file operations such as copying or moving files, editing files directly in the interface, creating folders, renaming files and folders and change a file’s or folder’s properties including chmod.

WinSCP 4.2.7 is a bug fix release that fixes four issues encountered in previous versions of the Windows software program.

  • Increased maximal size of accepted SFTP packet.
  • Bug fix: Failure when closing connection after another failed connection.
  • Bug fix: Root path was not remembered as last working path on a drive.
  • Bug fix: Hang-up after closing connection

The new version of WinSCP is provided as a download directly on the developer’s website. The program is portable and compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the Microsoft Windows operating system.
