WinSCP Portable 5.1 has been released. WinSCP Portable is a versatile SFTP, FTP and SCP client for transferring files that integrates with PuTTY Portable. This new release updates WinSCP to the latest version and fixes an issue in conjunction with PuTTY Portable. It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format for easy use from any portable device and integration with the PortableApps.com Platform. And it's open source and completely free.
Version Note: This release was originally packaged as 4.5.1 instead of the proper 5.1 version. No other changes were made. PortableApps.com Platform users will get a 380KB patch update. Our apologies for the mixup.
Update automatically or install from the portable app store in the PortableApps.com Platform.

You probably mean 5.1
According to its home page 4.3.9 is the last version from 4.x.
And thank you for extremely fast release.
WinSCP Portable 4.5.1 = 5.1.0
Hello John,
Filip is absolutely right.
"WinSCP Portable 4.5.1" shows actually "5.1.0" in the internal about requester.
To me, it looks like you guys at PortableApps have currently a little version number problem.
I noticed a similar problem in "LibreOffice Portable 3.6.1.1", which shows actually "3.6.1.2" in the internal about requester.
BTW, you are doing an excellent job besides these little numbering bugs!
Only WinSCP
It's only WinSCP. LibreOffice is correct. The internal number of LibreOffice (non-portable and portable) is 3.6.1.2. The external number (aka public version) of non-portable is 3.6.1. The external number of portable is 3.6.1.1. This is because a revision was needed but LibreOffice's hosting system doesn't permit 3.6.1 Rev 2. There is no other way to do that.
5.1 Fix
It's now properly packaged as 5.1. PortableApps.com Platform users will get a 380KB patch to update the issue. Apologies for the mixup.
