Question

I am new to both Putty and WinSCP. So can somebody tell me what the difference is between these two? And when should I use each.

Thanks.

Was it helpful?

Solution

WinSCP is for file transfer to and from your server while PuTTY is used to interact with the server directly. Putty is just a command line interface to your server. WinSCP is a file transfer application using Secure FTP.
