WinSCP (Windows Secure CoPy)
WinSCP is an open source free SFTP client, SCP client, FTPS client and FTP client for Windows.
Most people use vi as the text editor during configuration of embedded device. I hate to use vi, in which I have to memorize all the commands. Whereas WinSCP is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) program where you can edit your file like notepad. Additionally you can use WinSCP to download and upload files including settings of permission.
TP_LINK TL-WRT1043ND router and OpenWRT is use in this tutorial.
Integrating PuTTY in WinSCP
Most of the time, I use both WinSCP (Windows Secure CoPy) & PuTTY together, especially when work with Openwrt and DD-Wrt. It is very troublesome to start each program individually. So I decided to integrate PuTTY into WinSCP.
WinSCP is an open source free SFTP client, SCP client, FTPS client and FTP client for Windows.
PuTTY is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH for Windows and Unix platforms.

I would suggest to download the portable version for both WinSCP & Putty. With the portable version, you can easily copy WinSCP & PuTTY from one computer to another computer without erase the settings.
Here is the link for partable WinSCP & Putty:
