Putty Connection Manager X

PuttyCm is a good utility to open mutiple putty sessions in the same window across tabs. However there are certain problems when instead of opening in a new tab the putty session opens in a new window which is cumbersome and annoying.

PuTTY Manager – Get Tabbed PuTTY Interface Features: - A tabbed interface and dockable windows, - Fullscreen mode, - Working with existing PuTTY binary, or allow you to download it directly from the official page, - Let’s you export/import PuTTY connections to single file,- Download it for free for any use! If you have a PuTTY.ppk format private key and want to use it with the built-in OpenSSH on Mac on the command line or in scripts, you can use the following commands. First, install PuTTY for Mac using brew install putty or port install putty (see below). This will also install the command-line version of puttygen, the PuTTY key generator tool.


There are three ways to fix this problem:
1) Timeout option

2) Windows compatibility option
3) Windows registry settings

Putty Connection Manager For Mac


For 'Timeout option'
DownloadTools -> Options -> Select the check-box “Enable additional timing for PuTTY capture (ms)” -> set the value to 500 ms. Try even with value of 10,000ms (~10 secs)Putty Connection Manager X
If that does not work then try the above with 'Windows compatibility option' as indicated by this blog post
  • Right-click the executable file and go to Compatibility tab.
  • Choose compatibility for Windows (as per your operating system).
  • Toward the bottom of the Compatibility tab, tick 'Run this program as an administrator'.

If both the above solutions do not work then its possible that you do not have local admin priviledges. As each time puttycm tries to open a session in a new tab then it makes an entry in the windows registry. Check with your administrator if you have local admin rights granted. Once its granted puttyCm will open new sessions in a new tab.

“Putty Connection Manager” is a utility which works on top of the basic Putty utility and helps users to save connection parameters to different remote servers and provides Linux terminal kind of tabbing for different server connections.
