Export

Sessions exported by Xshell are collected into a single convenient file. When this file is imported from another computer where Xshell is installed, the imported sessions may be used without additional setup. However, the password of the exported session file will not be available unless a Master Password has been set on the PC from which the session file was exported and the same exact Master Password has been set on the PC into which the session file is imported.

To Export Session:

  1. Select [Export] from the [File] menu. The Import/Export Sessions wizard is displayed.
  2. Select the position where the exported file is to be saved and click [Next]. Session export results will be displayed.
    • Note
      If 'Clear Password' is selected, the exported session file will not include the session password during the export. Also, even if 'Clear Password' is not selected, the password will only be evailable if imported into the same computer under the same user. To use the session with the session password on another device you must first set a Master Password on the computer from which the session file is being exported and the same exact Master Password must be set on the computer into which the session file is to be imported.
  3. Click [Finish] to complete sessions export.
