You can export the registry settings into a file.
On any windoze maschine you can double-click on that file and you have
all your saved-sessions back (*and* the known-host info). 
There is even a "putty.exe -cleanup" to remove your traces out of the registry. 
There is also a ssh-agent, scp and all the goodies you know from the linux
