What's new in this version:

- TLS/SSL core upgraded to OpenSSL 1.0.1f.
- Showing delayed Progress window before any message box is displayed Usability improvements to new Login dialog:
- Consistently using Save caption for save button, even for new sites.
- Using de-facto standard accelerator A for Save As command (also removes duplicity with Save command).
- Explicit keyboard shortcut Alt+A for Save As command.
- When saving cloned site, offer folder and name (with unique suffix) of original site.
- Cloning to a new site when double-clicking site without host name specified.
- Selecting tab to the right after closing tab.
- When externally opening additional session in existing instance of WinSCP, bringing its window to front.
- Using same accelerator for Upload and Download commands
- Default transfer setting preset can be duplicated.
- Temporarily suspending countdown when moving mouse over message box with “timeout” button.
- Showing name of folder being calculated on Progress window before the calculation starts, not only after it has finished.
- Widening default Progress column of background transfer queue list to fit “Connecting…” and “Calculating…” states. Bugs fixed:
- Progress window is not shown for custom command launching long-lasting external process.
- Swapped local and remote Root directory command buttons.
- Drag&Drop menu on local panel loses focus when a change is detected in local drive.
- Duplicate accelerator between Edit and Download and Delete commands and Download and Delete.
- Repeated attempt to immediately start “Keeping remote directory up to date” when prompt to perform prior full synchronization is canceled with /keepuptodate /defaults.
- Preferred main window size is lost after command-line operation.
- Invalid decoding of session URL with sequence of encoded characters that includes + or % encoded character on second or later place in the sequence.
- Background transfer queue progress was shown on main window title, when a dialog box was opened on top of it.
- Some hint labels did not fit their caption, particularly with long translations.
