The OpenSSH website is located at www.openssh.com
This website hosts a Windows installer package of Openssh for Windows that is actively maintained and current.
The sshwindows package hasn't been maintained for a long timeand is woefully out of date. I've been rolling my ownversions of this installer for quite a while and figured others mightfind this useful as well.
I'll walk you through installationand setup of the OpenSSH package forWindows. First download the latest version (or the version of your choice), and head to the bottom of the page for a quick walk-thru
If you are looking for OpenSSH binaries for Windows 2000, XP, or 2003, head over to the OpenSSH installers for Windows 2000/XP/2003 pagefor links to the latest binaries that will work with those particular operating systems.
If you are looking for older OpenSSH binaries that have been hosted on this site in the past, head over to the older OpenSSH installer page.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NOTE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As was pointed out, the Windows OpenSSH installer could be even more useful to people if it had additional language support. To contribute, download Descriptions.zip. Open the zip and edit Descriptions.nsi and email the updated language descriptions (Descriptions.nsi) to me at admin<AT>mls-software.com with a note as to how you would like to be credited and I'll get that included in the release. First to respond will get the credit, and I'll cross languages off the list as they come in. Based on the download history, the following countries primary languages would be the most useful: China, Japan, India, Russia, Italy, Ukraine, Netherlands. Languages currently supported: German - creopard.de, Danish - Tox, Portuguese (Brazil) - HackerOrientado, Spanish - zaquintar, French - MirrorBrain, Chinese_Simple - Wair56. Thanks for your help.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NOTE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New VersionOpenSSH 8.5p1-1
This is an updated OpenSSH 8.5p1-1 installer for both x86 and x64 binaries. This version includes ssh-sk-helper.exe, cygfido2-1.dll, and cygcbor-0.dll (which was missing last time) so I hope it provides Yubikey support (I have no way to test that) The random password that is generated WILL NOT work with Windows Server causing the service to be unable to start - you MUST REPLACE THAT PASSWORD WITH SOMETHING THAT MEETS THE COMPLEXITY REQUIREMENTS OF A SERVER. Frankly, that password should be replaced in all cases...but people tend to be lazy :-)

I had hoped to fix Chinese and Russian language translations so they showed up correctly, however, there are some bugs in the unicode library that I updated/ported that I haven't fixed yet. Thanks to the Simon H. who sent me some clues on how to fix that issue. I should hopefully have this fixed by next rev.

OpenSSH 7.6p1-1
This is an updated OpenSSH 7.6p1-1 installer for both x86 and x64 binaries. There was a major change to this release - for security reasons the password associated with the sshd_server account is randomly generated (instead of D0ntGu3$$M3). You may change the password during the install process, but it was brought to my attention that many people probably weren't changing the D0ntGu3$$M3 password and that was of course a HUGE security risk. Finally, this release includes language support for Spanish and French - more languages would be welcome.

OpenSSH 7.5p1-1
This is an updated OpenSSH 7.5p1-1 installer for both x86 and x64 binaries. There was a major change to this release - for security reasons the server (sshd) MUST run with privilege seperation. As such, the installer and sshd_config file were updated to support this change. This brings with it a caveat - the installer has a default password for the sshd_server account (which is required for privilege seperation) - the password is D0ntGu3$$M3. YOU MUST PICK YOUR OWN PASSWORD FOR YOUR SYSTEM IF YOU ARE USING THE SERVER. I also changed the installer to install the server by default UNLESS you specify only the client via the installer or via a /clientonly=1 if you are using the command line switches. The rysnc command was also added to the binary directory. The final change was the removal of the pop-up windows that showed up during install - this change has been requested in the past and was requested again -- I have removed the windows as they just clutter things up. Finally, this release includes language support for German, Danish, and Portuguese (Brazil) - more languages would be welcome.

OpenSSH 7.1p2-1
This is an updated OpenSSH 7.1p1-1 installer for both x86 and x64 binaries. I also took this opportunity to clean up the files to only the minimal dependencies. Let me know if you run into any missing file warnings.

Once you've downloaded the executable, start it up to be greeted withthe OpenSSH splash screen followed by the welcome and license screen. You can select the defaults all the way through theinstallation process if desired - these should work for mostintallations:
The first point where you get to make some choices is the choosecomponent dialog.
Select
Client - to install the sshclient command line tools (if you want to connect to other ssh servers
Server - to install the ssh server command line application (if youwant to provide an ssh server for others to connect to)
Start Menu Shortcuts - a few start menushortcuts
Thenext screen that requires some explanation is the 'Choose account underwhich to execute SSHD'. The SSH Daemon (SSHD) can run aseitherLocal_System or SSHD_Server. If you are using Windows Server (2003/2008/2008R2/etc.)youwill likely have to run this as SSHD_Server, however all others shouldbe able to run this as Local_System. The default passwordthat isfilled in for you is 'D0ntGu3$$M3' - I would recommend changing it! You can change thislater byusing the Services Control Panel.
If you choose 'Run as SSHD_Server', then you will be presented with theprivilege seperation option.
In general, itshould be OK to not use priviledge seperation unless you are runningWindows 2003.
Ifyou are running the sshd server, select the port. The defaultport for ssh is 22, however you may select whatever you want (but thenyou'll have to pass that in as on -p option when you connect)
You may now select the keysize. The default keysize of 2048 is probably sufficient, however ifyou are truly concerned about your network privacy 4096 would be a good next choice.
You canconfigure ssh for either local users or domain users. Thisdetermines how the password file is setup and you should probablychooseLocal users.
OpenSSH will begin to install and configure itself for your system.
At this point, openssh is setup and configured for your system. Totry this out, open up a command prompt (cmd.exe) and try:
ssh -v (For OpenSSH 6.3 and below)
ssh -V (For OpenSSH 6.4 and above)
which will show you the version information.
If youinstalled the openssh server, it will start automatically after theinstallation completes.
You may also open up a command prompt with administratorpriviledges and try:
net start opensshd
which should cause the opensshd daemon service to start
To stop the service (if/when you want to):
net stop opensshd
You can also stop/start the openssh service from the Services controlpanel applet.
If you experience problems with the service, look in /var/log as itmight have a clue why the service is failing to start.
The original source code for sshwindowscame from SourceForge.net.
