For me it used to be very annoying to always manually start pageant, load my key(s) one by one, enter their passwords and then manually start putty. So I thought of an easy way to automate that process. And luckily we don't even need any kind of script for that. Just a single link, that will open pageant with our specified key(s) and afterwards will run putty. Here you can see how that works!
- Create a new link to your pageant.exe
- Open the link's properties
- Go to the tab "Link properties" and enter
"C:\path\to\pageant.exe" "C:\path\to\key.ppk" -c "C:\path\to\putty.exe"
- Take the path of the pageant's directory and enter it in "Start in" field.
