How can I SSH from Microsoft Windows?
Question:
How can I SSH from Microsoft Windows?
Answer:
Although Microsoft Windows does include an application to FTP and Telnet, it does not come pre-installed with an application that enables a user to SSH to another computer. If you need to SSH to a remote computer you will need to download a third-party program in order to connect over SSH.
Below is a short list of SSH programs we suggest trying.
- OpenSSH for Windows
- SecureCRT from Vandyke
- PuTTY
