Prevent reconnect retry

If one selects a tab that is not connected, WinSCP will automatically try to connect. If it cannot get to the host it will sit there for a while and then will count down till it automatically retries connection.

I would like a way to prevent it automatically retrying after a countdown.

Often I wish to close a bunch of tabs and I would really like to be able to just close them without WinSCP trying to connect to the server as soon as I select the tab. even worse is that it will get into a loop where it keeps retrying meaning that one has to sit and look at it to catch it just when it posts the dialog box.

Thanks for your post. We are aware of this and we plan to improve it.

This issue is a big problem for me too, because connections to my remote servers often fall off. And I would like to ask you to implement automatic background reconnection with a few attempts if it's possible.
