De eerste update voor versie 5.1 van WinSCP is uitgebracht. Met dit programma, dat onder een opensourcelicentie wordt uitgebracht, kunnen op een veilige manier bestanden tussen twee computers worden gekopieerd. Het programma ondersteunt ftp, secure ftp en het oudere scp-protocol. WinSCP is niet alleen als een op zichzelf staand programma beschikbaar, maar ook als plug-in voor de bestandsbeheerprogramma's FAR en Altap Salamander. Sinds kort bevat het installatiebestand een OpenCandy-sponsormodule, maar er is ook een download zonder deze adware. De uitgebreide lijst met veranderingen in versie 5.1 is op deze pagina te vinden. Deze update bevat verder verbeterde ondersteuning voor Windows 8 en diverse bugfixes.
