7. Copy INI file to new computer where you want to import the previously stored sessions.

As documented here:

you can export settings to an INI file without changing your configuration.

Copy WinSCP sessions from one machine to another

Open the Registry Editor, Search for "WinSCP". For me, it's under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Martin Prikryl\WinSCP 2\
Right click on "Sessions", Export this to a .reg file
On your other machine, Open Registry Editor --> File --> Import to import the .reg file that you created above

Re: Export/Import Session with V. 3.7.6 (build 306)

I've an old version installed and I would like to try export/import an another machine before upgrading to the last version 4.1.6.

There is not "Export" button in the Preference section in V 3.7.6.

So, I've installed the old version 3.7.6 an another computer with success. I've copied my C:\Program Files\WinSCP3\winscp3.ini to the new computer, then launched Winscp3.

I don't have any stored sessions ...

Try to upgrade to 4.1.6 on the first computer and use the export function.

You can open the INI file in any editor and copy the sections named [Sessions\...].
