Easy access to files over SSH/SFTP with Windows
Access your files on another computer securely via SFTP.
Swish is easy to use because it integrates seamlessly with Explorer and working with remote files feels just like working with the ones on your local computer.
We believe Swish is a better option for typical users than WinSCP because it is so easy to use. Download it now and decide for yourself.
Getting Started
Swish is a Windows Explorer extension so you don't need to open a separate program to use it:
- Windows Vista & Windows 7
- Open Computer. Double-click on the Swish icon. Click the Add SFTP Connection button. Complete the details in the dialogue and click OK. You should see a new connection appear in the Explorer Window which you can double-click to access.
- Windows 98/2000/XP
- Open My Computer. Double-click on the Swish icon. Select Tools from the menu bar and then Add SFTP Connection. Complete the details in the dialogue and click OK. You should see a new connection appear in the Explorer Window which you can double-click to access.
Current status: alpha
Alpha status means that Swish is still rough around the edges and missing several features. By all means download it, install it and give me feedback but please bear this in mind.
