Versions:
SSH Copy ID 1.1.1, developed by axeprpr, is a lightweight Windows command-line utility that replicates the familiar Linux ssh-copy-id behavior, enabling administrators and developers to automate the deployment of SSH public keys to remote servers’ authorized_keys files without leaving the Windows environment. The tool accepts any local key file, connects over a user-specified SSH port, and, if necessary, creates the remote ~/.ssh directory and authorized_keys file with correct permissions, while built-in duplicate detection prevents redundant entries. Typical use cases include headless setup of web servers, CI/CD pipelines that provision build agents, and rapid onboarding of new team members to cloud or on-premise fleets. Because the executable is self-contained and requires no installation, it integrates cleanly with PowerShell scripts, Ansible playbooks, or batch jobs executed from Windows desktops, laptops, or build servers. Since its initial appearance, the project has released three successive versions, each refining error handling and broadening compatibility with OpenSSH, PuTTY, and third-party Windows SSH agents. The current 1.1.1 build remains the recommended download for production systems. SSH Copy ID is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are supplied through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
