Managing files in WinSCP
This tutorial assumes you already have WinSCP running on your computer, and connected to a remote server
Now let's learn how to manage our website files
The first thing we're going to do is create a new folder (or directory) on the remote server
Click Create Directory
Type the name of the new folder here, then click OK
That's all there is to it. Now let's rename this new folder...
Select the folder to be renamed
Click Rename
Type the new name of the folder here
The new folder has been renamed
You can also rename files the same way as you rename folders
To delete a folder (or file) make sure it's highlighted...
Select FolderOld
Then click Delete
The folder we just created, has been deleted
Now let's learn how to change the permissions of a file
Select postinfo.html
Then click Properties
To change the file permissions, simply enter the new permissions value here by checking off the appropiate boxes below
Click OK
That's it! Permissions for the file postinfo.html have been succesfully changed
This is the end of the tutorial. You now know how to manage your files and folders in WinSCP, including creating new folders, renaming them, deleting them, and changing file permissions
