The Site Manager
The Site Manager stores each Site's connection information so that you don't have to enter it every time you want to connect to a server. You can also export and import your Site data, in case you need to install CuteFTP on a new computer or to share with other CuteFTP users. When you create a Site using the Connection Wizard, the Site is automatically added to the Site Manager. You can also save connection settings for Sites that you use often by manually adding them to the Site Manager.
