WinSCP 5.8.3 RC release notes:

Improvements to .NET assembly

  • Added Session.TranslateLocalPathToRemote to .NET assembly to generate a remote path equivalent of a local path, given root paths.
  • Change: A complete remote error message is stored into a single instance of SessionRemoteException, instead of separating error details into an inner exception.
  • Preventing .NET assembly from timing out during lengthy file transfers.
  • Preventing winscp.com and .NET assembly timing out waiting for winscp.exe when the system is temporarily busy.
  • Bug fix: Session instance could not be used anymore after calling ScanFingerprint.
  • Bug fix: Failure when Session.MoveFile source file is not existing and its name has file mask-like syntax.
  • Bug fix: WinSCP .NET assembly cannot find WinSCP executable in its installation folder not the default installation folder when used in 64-bit process.

Improvements to custom commands:

  • Extensions are configurable.
  • Local path pattern (!\) for custom commands.
  • All custom command prompts are entered on one dialog box.
  • Separating custom commands that do not operate with files to a separate submenu of Commands menu.
  • Holding down Ctrl and Shift keys while running a local custom command copies the command to clipboard instead of executing it.
  • Displaying full command name in custom command preferences list. The keyboard shortcut now displays in a hint only. [full release history]
