How to save PuTTY profiles/sessions?
Posted on In QAPuTTY is a great SSH client on Windows. However, how to save it’s profiles/sessions that I saved so that I can migrate my settings from one machine to another?
PuTTY saves its settings in the registry of Windows.
You can find it in the registry editor by run regedit
under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareSimonTatham
You can save your settings by exporting (right click the “SimonTatham” entry) it to a .reg file.
On another machine, you can recover your settings by importing the .reg file (usually double clicking it is enough).
