PuTTY Tray is an improved version of PuTTY. It features some cosmetic changes, and a number of addons to make it more useful and much more fun to use.

Originally compiled by Barry Haanstra, now maintained by Chris West (Faux).

• Minimizing to the system tray (on CTRL + minimize, always or directly on startup)
• Icons are customisable
• Blinks tray icon when a bell signal is received
• Configurable window transparency
• URL hyperlinking
• Portability: optionally stores session configuration in files (for example: on a USB drive) like portaPuTTY
• Easy access to the ‘always on top’ setting (in the system menu)
• Reconnects on connection failure, including when waking up from stand-by
• Android adb support
