Hi. Guess you could also try this. In the folder where the program is installed, make sure that nothing is hidden, if your in windows xp, go to the tools menu, Folder options. In the view tab, scrole down to hidden files and folders, and tick the box (off) Go to to the beginning of your options, you will see a button called apply to all folders, press enter, and answer yes to apply it to every folder on your computer, else click apply, and then ok to ammend your changes. Close the folder, and open it again, any hidden files should now be shown. What is this program? anyway. Kind regards: Jamie. ----- Original Message ----- From: TJ McElroy To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2007 8:01 PM Subject: Re: Putty question Hello Eileen, I am not a Putty user, but you could try a search for Putty.* and then look at the directory that the search finds Putty .exe in. There might be a .ini or .dat or maybe an .xml file that contains the settings.

Now, I have installed Putty on my work computer that I have at home. My question is does anyone know where the .ini file is located for Putty? I am assuming that there is an .ini file that contains the settings, and accounts, etc. I did a search in my local disk for putty.ini and there was not one. Can anyone help me find where the Putty settings and accounts are saved so that I can copy that file to my home computer? Thanks for any help.
