A Win32 port of OpenSSH for Windows, now serving as a release and issue tracker plus wiki for the project. Active development has moved to the PowerShell/openssh-portable repository.

Use cases

  • install OpenSSH on Windows
  • run an SSH server on Windows
  • use ssh and scp from the Windows command line
  • find Windows OpenSSH release binaries
  • look up build instructions for OpenSSH on Windows

When to choose

  • you need SSH client/server binaries for Windows
  • you want the project wiki with Windows-specific setup and build docs
  • you need to file or track Windows OpenSSH issues

When to avoid

  • you want to contribute code or build from source - use PowerShell/openssh-portable
  • you need SSH on Linux or macOS - use upstream OpenSSH
  • you need a GUI SSH client
