PuTTY

3.1.3.3 Starting new sessions

PuTTY's system menu provides some shortcut ways to start new sessions:

  • Selecting ‘New Session’ will start a completely new instance of PuTTY, and bring up the configuration box as normal.
  • Selecting ‘Duplicate Session’ will start a session in a new window with precisely the same options as your current one - connecting to the same host using the same protocol, with all the same terminal settings and everything.
  • In an inactive window, selecting ‘Restart Session’ will do the same as ‘Duplicate Session’, but in the current window.
  • The ‘Saved Sessions’ submenu gives you quick access to any sets of stored session details you have previously saved. See section 4.1.2 for details of how to create saved sessions.
