PuTTY (PSFTP)

📟

SSH TUI for Windows.

Windows SSH terminal and SFTP client; WSL with native SSH is now recommended.

PuTTY is a classic command line tool for Windows users. PuTTY itself is for SSH terminal access, but the suite includes PSFTP for secure file transfers via command line. If you prefer a graphical interface on Windows, we recommend WinSCP or Cyberduck.

We do not recommend using PuTTY on Windows any more. It's better to use the command ssh as it is included in Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), starting with Windows 10.
