Folder Colors

To make file transfer operations easier, the folders in the remote host computer are displayed in different colors according to their status.

Yellow folders are 'familiar folders' that are known to be available for your use. Usually this means that you have opened them earlier.

Gray folders are 'unknown folders' that have not yet been visited. Therefore the SSH Secure Shell for Workstations Windows client does not yet know if the remote host computer allows you to access them.

Red folders are 'forbidden folders'. You don't have a permission to access them, and therefore the remote host computer does not allow you to view their contents. If you select a red folder, the File view on the right will be blank. Select some other folder to continue.

Green folders are 'folders being loaded'. When you select a new folder, it turns green for the time it takes to list its contents. Unless the folder contains a large number of files and subfolders (or the connection is slow), the folder does not stay green longer than a fraction of a second.
