Sharing WinSCP configuration between machines using cloud storage

On Preferences dialog, go to the Storage page and select Custom INI file. Save the INI file to a folder that is synchronized to your cloud storage.

  • With Microsoft OneDrive, the folder is by default C:\Users\username\OneDrive.1 Though you can just simply use the “OneDrive” shortcut in the navigation tree.
  • With Dropbox, the folder is by default C:\Users\username\Dropbox. Though you can just simply use the “Dropbox” shortcut in the navigation tree.

Repeat on every machine, where you want to share the configuration. Though this time, assuming the INI file is already synchronized, WinSCP will ask you, if you want to overwrite the INI file or use it. Choose to use it.

  1. On older systems the path can use SkyDrive.Back
