Comments

The PortableApps menu shows WinSCP Portable 5.1.7, but WinSCP Portable "about" shows 5.1.6 and the program complains about the file WinSCP.de being "for 5.1.7" and "has to be removed".

To me it looks like the internal version string is wrong (5.1.6) but the files are actually correctly for 5.1.7.

By the way: that was my second comment - and it's about the WinSCP Version - again! Wink

The About requester shows: "Version 5.1.6 (Build 3394)" if that helps.

It looks like all language files lead to the same complaint: "for 5.1.7".
