puTTY isn’t exactly the cleanest of UI’s either…

It’s better now that they added “Edit” to the context menu of .RDP’s. Although it strips settings it doesn’t have UI for – like custom resolutions.

I welcome the updates, but my main gripe is how the whole application is designed. I think it would work a lot better if it would save a server profile (even .RDP files in a directory), and then allow you to select them in the drop down and modify the settings per server. Hard to explain, but what I’m talking about is how Putty SSH client works. I think it just stinks that you have to save the RDP file, but then you have to launch the .RDP file to access the connection. As it is now, to duplicate the functionality I’m talking about, you have to launch Remote Connection, click Options, click Open, Browse to a saved RDP file, Open it, etc. So much simpler is the app would just enumerate them and list them, eh? I suppose the Jump List will do just this function… Oh, and don’t get me started on the layout of the tabs, all those settings could be organized into a much cleaner format!

Interesting how they clarified the wording on the “experience” tab. Not sure I like the new icon – a dish sorta made sense, but two arrows?

What is the difference between the actual settings for “WAN” and “LAN” if you don’t mind me asking.
