Transfer options - don't remember the entered exclusions of directories

2021-06-29 10:41

Hello,
With the option "Automatically update remote directory" -> "transfer options" it don't remember the entered exclusions of two directories.

I'm not sure I follow.
Did you expect that with enabled Automatically update remote directory, WinSCP should always remember your transfer settings? Why?
Or did you mean something else? What are you trying to achieve?

It only remembers 3 items from the "Exclude Directories" option, and no more.
It's supposed to remember because I'm marking it to use the same settings next time.

Where are you "marking it to use the same settings next time"?
Please provide us step-by-step instructions for reproducing the problem.
More screenshots might also help.

#3 - I add two new directories, click Start, then Stop, close the window, open it again and the two directories added earlier are no longer on the list (#5) :/

The "Use same options next time" does not remember the transfer settings. As documented:

That's also why the check box is above the transfer settings box.
