This page contains download links for PuTTY release 0.78.

0.78, released on 2022-10-29, is not the latest release. See the Latest Release page for the most up-to-date release (currently 0.82).

Past releases of PuTTY are versions we thought were reasonably likely to work well, at the time they were released. However, later releases will almost always have fixed bugs and/or added new features. If you have a problem with this release, please try the latest release, to see if the problem has already been fixed.

SECURITY WARNING

This release has known security vulnerabilities. Consider using a later release instead, such as the latest version, 0.82.

The known vulnerabilities in this release are:

Package files

You probably want one of these. They include versions of all the PuTTY utilities (except the new and slightly experimental Windows pterm).

Bug: this installer was built differently to other versions, in a way that causes trouble for upgrades (among other problems) – see the bug record for details. To avoid upgrade trouble, when moving between 0.78 and other versions, we recommend completely uninstalling the existing version first. You can avoid the need for this (and other problems with this installer) by installing 0.78 with a special command-line invocation like:

msiexec.exe /i path\to\putty-64bit-0.78-installer.msi ALLUSERS=1

(Not sure whether you want the 32-bit or the 64-bit version? Read the FAQ entry.)
