I see this feature has already been missed 5 years ago - by me too.

As an alternative for this important missing feature I still use Beyond Compare 3 pro.

I'd take two LOCAL panels too. Why? Because the Windows filemanager has HORRIBLE error-handling. one error, and the whole transfer STOPS. I need something more reliable, and more flexible.

I shouldn't have to always go to KNOPPIX just to copy an HD to another HD, when there is a permission problem, or an IO error.

Just because WinSCP was not designed for such usage and it would need to be significantly remade.

one of the ftp clients that i used to prefer is WSftp
it does support sftp now as well, but it is a much larger footprint on memory, and a much bulkier program (and it no longer has a free version)

there use to be WSftp Pro and WSftp Lite (free). they have now continued WSftp Pro, but replaced the Lite version with WSftp Home, which is $39.95 (US Dollars).

i am not sure on the home version, but the Pro version supports sftp transfers, but you can have two remote windows, two local windows, or one of each

I just came here searching for the same thing and would love to have this ability also. Too bad it doesn't appear eminant since it's apparently been a big request.

This has been discussed to death. It is not planned, and not (readily) feasable.

it is possible to browse two remote folders (instead local/ remote) of the same server and may be... between two remote servers woluld be great. :shock:
