OpenPutty is a handy Chrome extension designed to launch the PuTTY SSH client directly from your Firefox browser. It simplifies the process of initiating SSH sessions without leaving your web environment. If you're not using alternatives like WinSCP, configuring PuTTY as your default SSH URL handler in Windows ensures smooth integration. Detailed setup instructions are available to help you configure PuTTY properly, enhancing your remote connection workflow.

This extension streamlines remote system access by bridging browser interactions and your local SSH client. It's especially useful for developers, system administrators, and IT professionals who frequently use PuTTY and want quick browser-based access.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

OpenPutty does not require any sensitive permissions.
