Windows Secure CoPy

Windows Secure CoPy, or WSC for short, is a popular SFTP and FTP client. It lets you sync files using the SCP protocol. This makes it a solid choice for securely transferring files from your local machine to a remote server.

Perfect for Webmasters

If you're a webmaster or an admin, you probably manage multiple websites on different servers. While juggling these can be handy when switching servers, it does raise some security concerns. You might end up storing passwords directly on the server since that's where the app allows it.

Restore Your Passwords with winscppwd

This is where winscppwd comes into play! It's a small tool that helps you recover passwords saved in WinSCP. To start using it, just point to the location of your WinSCP.ini file and watch it work its magic. Since the app saves settings in the Windows registry, you might need to change to WinSCP.ini mode through the program's preferences menu.

Switching to INI Mode

Quick tip: You can switch to ini mode from the advanced Options section of WinSCP. Just go to Preferences, then head over to Additional Preferences. In this section, look for Configuration Storage; there you can select your INI file (WinSCP.ini) with ease!

This easy-to-use tool ensures that you don't lose access to your important passwords while keeping everything secure. So if you're managing several sites and worried about password safety, give WSC and winscppwd a try!
