How to integrate WinSCP for U3 with PuTTY for U3?

sergiom99 - December 11, 2006 - 3:03pm

Hi,
I am now using the U3 versions of both Winscp and Putty. However, how can I make WINSCP 'see' the U3 putty?
I need to write something in the Putty path in the integration tab, but the putty.exe is inside its U3 package, as all the files in Winscp installation as well.

Hope anyone has any feedback for that.

Many thanks- Sergio

You can't

U3 apps can't launch each other. If they do, then the called app might not be initialized... be initialized more than once... or point at a local settings file, registry or profile rather than the U3 one. Basically, bad things can happen.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

haha

I see then...

kindda sucks not being able to call Putty from WinScp in the U3 environment. (what's the point of having each other?)

Thanks for your reply John, you rock!
