I would like to not have to close the sidebar after opening a ssh session but i cannot find a way to stop it.
Does anyone know if there is a way to stop MobaXTerm from opening up the sidebar after connecting or even to remove the sidebar altogether. I have mobaxterm v10.5.
On MobaXterm v10.5, you can do the following to avoid showing the sidebar:
Click on View→Show/hide sidebar.
This hides/shows the sidebar across all the tabs of MobaXterm.
I suggest disabling Use SSH-browser (graphical remote file browser in the sidebar) and Automatically switch sidebar view to show the graphical SSH-browser as suggested by the following Stack Overflow answer.
In newer versions of MobaXterm, these options were renamed to Enable graphical SSH-browser and Automatically switch to SSH-browser tab after login
Under Settings, there are these 2 options that control this behavior that I typically turn off.
Source:
Just use slider hiding shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+B.
Personal Edition v23, unchecking 1 default check-box solves it
The settings menu has changed.
For each SSH User Session configuration one can turn off SFTP to prevent the sidebar from popping out in new sessions.
SSH => Basic SSH settings => Advanced SSH settings => SSH-browser type = None
After saving this will apply to new sessions, not restarted ones. Close affections sessions or relaunch MobaXTerm to apply the effect.
