KonX 0.32.0

KonX 0.32.0 — Save on-demand sessions

2026-10-27. Keep a connection you opened on demand in Saved Sessions without re-entering its connection settings or interrupting your work.

Changes

• Choose Save session in an open terminal or SFTP tab, or from its application tab menu.
• Review the filled-in connection settings, choose a name and folder, and optionally save login credentials using the existing encrypted local store.
• Keep the live connection running while saving. Use Edit saved session afterward to update the same saved record.
• Share the saved reference between a terminal and SFTP opened from it. Cloned on-demand connections can be saved separately. Saved connections can be included in Site workspaces.
• Prefill a known authenticated username and available Quick Connect password. Login-prompt passwords and challenge answers are not recovered; enter a reusable password in the save form if needed.
• Keep save requests associated with the created record through repeated clicks, closed dialogs and sidebar refresh failures. A failed write leaves the form available for retry.
• Retain Home visibility choices, all 18 themes, workspace layouts, terminal palettes, clipboard controls and existing sessions.

See Save an on-demand connection, the user guide, and the update guide.

Downloads and upgrading

Windows x64: installer, portable, and checksums.

Installed 0.6.2+ and portable 0.6.0+ can use Update KonX in the top-right header or Settings → Updates. Installed 0.6.0/0.6.1 requires one manual upgrade. Save drafts, stop listeners and captures, and disconnect before restarting. Both distributions keep the existing Windows profile.

Validation

Full suite: 1,082/1,082 passed. Windows packaging verified 162 source files and 9 runtime dependencies. Packaged SSH passed 28 negotiation and 16 key-format checks; serial passed 27 synthetic checks. Unpacked and portable builds passed isolated save/restart smoke checks. Executable product versions match 0.32.0.

The production UI workflow passed with an owned loopback SSH/SFTP server and a real process restart. Checks covered name/folder creation, encrypted password retention and opt-out, prompted username handling, unchanged connection identity, cancel, failed saves and retry, delayed saves after dialog/tab closure, failed list refresh, shared SFTP, independent clones, serial/Telnet options, saved-site references, and saving through a popped-out dialog after redocking. Existing session-management UI checks also passed. Save controls and the dialog were inspected at 900px.

Coverage

Automated release checks use isolated profiles and synthetic data. Physical equipment, live providers, physical multi-monitor changes, and an elevated installed upgrade require separate field testing. Executables remain unsigned.
