Hi FZ Support team,
I'm a total noob to SFTP but have followed the instructions here to get Pagent and Putty and a connection to my server's SSH secure SFTP logon. Things are working good, was just wondering if perhaps someone could elaborate on exactly how to do this part in the article.
"As you may or may not know, FileZilla can be easily carried around on portable media such as a USB stick and used from any PC. This also applies to the PuTTY tools, so if you stick Pageant and your PPK key file on to, for example, a USB stick, you can now access your server from any Windows PC. "
Many thanks the duke
Hi FZ Support Team,
I have version 3.3.0.1 and I don't see anymore the SSH2 option? Any suggestions?

SSH-key[edit]
Hi everybody.
Sorry to say this, but this doesnt work. "Now simply launch FileZilla and connect to your server using SFTP using SSH2" I have no possibility to set explicitely "SSH2", I can only choose "SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocoll" which I've done. Also the Pageant is running with the key. I have here the interface in German. I did choose: Verbindungsart: Interaktiv Is this right? What else can be the reason, it is not working?
Thanks in advance, best regards, Thomas

I'm going to assume that once you say "No" to storing passwords, that is it for your installation of FZ, you cannot re-enable this function. Because I said "No" after installation thinking "No, I would like to be asked most of the time", only to realise that I was saying "No" on behalf of all the "me"s for all times in the future.

openssh format key is supported[edit]
this page state that openssh format key need to be converted to putty's ppk format, but most openssh use pem format to store private key, which is support by filezilla, too. there is no need to convert openssh format private key to putty format.

does not work with FIDO2 key[edit]
Logging in with a FIDO2 key such as Yubikey does not work for me. When I try to add the key file for Public-Key Authentication I get an error "File xy.pub cannot be loaded because it or does not contain a private key." Of course it does not contain a private key this is stored on the FIDO2. --2A00:D2E0:104:E400:B93B:B09F:7543:62B9 14:30, 18 January 2024 (CET)
