Configuring Session (Login Dialog)
To configure your session, start WinSCP, and then use the Login dialog that opens. It can be invoked also later to open additional sessions.
Login dialog also shows automatically on startup and when the last session is closed, by default. You can turn that off by unchecking the Show Login dialog on startup and when the last session is closed checkbox. You can revert that in preferences.
