WinSCP Translations

Translation plugins are included in multilanguage installation package. However the package is usually updated with new release only. Here you may download up to date version of the translation plugin. Also incomplete translations are available here too, so you may help in beta-testing them or just check the progress.

Highlighted time in plugin update column tags complete translations that were not included in the multilanguage installation package of the last release or that were updated since the release.

Read the documentation to learn how to install the translation.
In addition to the default English user interface, WinSCP can be switched to other languages.
Obtaining and Installing the Translation

The installation package contains all the translations that were complete at time of its release (particularly for beta releases, there may be none). Other translations may be downloaded separately from the translation page. On that page there may be complete translations that were finished after the release. You can download incomplete translations as well. Non-translated parts of the interface will be in English.

The translation is contained in a separate file. It does not need to be installed in any way, it suffices to extract the file from the ZIP archive to the same directory where the WinSCP executable is (i.e. installation directory). Except for the extension, the file must have the same name as the executable.

The installer installs the executable into the file WinSCP.exe. It corresponds to name of the downloadable translation files. For example, the Czech translation has the name WinSCP.cs. If your executable has a different name, you need to rename the translation file to the same name. This applies in the case where you download the portable executable with a name like winscp400.exe.

Note that the translation file for a particular version of WinSCP cannot be used for any other version, be it older or newer.
Switching Language

You will have the first opportunity to select your preferred language during the installation. If you download your preferred language later or change your mind, you can change the language using the Language button on the bottom of the Login dialog.

However, note that the language chosen during installation will affect the language of the icons which the installer creates (program group in Start menu, "Send to" link, etc). The icons are fixed and will not change when you switch your language later.
