    Use Kitty instead. Having said that, clickable links don't always work correctly.

    Why not just install OpenSSH? Then you can run the ssh and scp command-line tools as normal. If you install Cygwin, they're probably there already. The advantage of PuTTY is that it includes its own terminal emulator, which is important because the Windows one sucks (or, did when I last used Windows - Win2K - it may be better now).

    Doesn't look like it will be sadly. From the download page:

    Please note: I have decided to stop development of the PuTTY Tray patch, and I have no plans to resume it at any point in the future.
